OK. Let me ( https://build.opensuse.org/user/show/DarkSS ) became the maintainer.
Make sure to take care of issues like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1422550 as well... upstream had tagged a version 3.7beta2 almost 10 years ago; so don't expect much upstream activity on reported security issues and be prepared to fix them (this is just the first one I found googline for 30 seconds) Our package has not been touched since 2013 - which is already a bad sign in itself (it builds is not qualification) Cheers Dominique
