Update the 'tilda' package

The official repository is now the one on github [3], I contacted
Tristan Slaughter a few month ago and asked him to pull my changes
around that time I also asked on this mailing list that launchpad should
synch from github instead of sourceforge.
Also the current code is not tagged it is ready to be used. I have been
using this very code since a few years now on my laptop. If you look
closely the changes on github from lanoxx have been merged five month
ago, but are infact much older. So the best thing would be to just
package it and deliver it, despide the fact that its not tagged.
I have CCed Tristan Sloughter. Tristan, maybe you could make a release
so it can be packaged and shipped in the next Ubuntu version?
Regards
Sebastian
