Sorry, I think I was confusing daapd with another (system-critical)
component. You probably need to contact the maintainer of the original
mt-daapd and make sure they're on-board with switching to this new
forked version, as well as trying to identify any applications that
depend on mt-daapd and work with them to ensure that forked-daapd either
won't break their packages or they can at least release updates
simultaneously.

If you are in fact the maintainer of mt-daapd, the first part should be
easy. :)
