Just one further note, since I didn't make it clear in the last email.
It's not downstream patch hoarding if JPackage is not upstream. Since
there's no syncing between the packages since devrim took over, I'd be
hard pressed to say there is an upstream-downstream relationship between
the currently maintained package and the JPackage one. There was a
historical relationship but the package went the derived route instead
of the upstream-downstream route when the new maintainer took over.
