Sorry for the delay,
with the transition to the new GNOME desktop by default and other 
related tasks, the few active people on the archive admin community were

I'm going to spend my tomorrow morning looking at your package and 
unblock them.
Thanks for your patience and our apologizes again.

Cheers,
Didier
