Bugzilla has the info for almost a year now. Just query the pyxdg bug

If you don't consider my comments useful, I can't help it. :(
Bugzilla is your friend. I've added you to Cc list of a ticket, so you
should have received a notification meanwhile.

The situation is that we've tried to contact the maintainer in bugzilla
for a very long time without success.
