It's been a while since I used this the last time, but would consider 
Fedora dropping this package a pity.

Apparently this package suffers from several issues (It currently 
doesn't build and has some BZ'ed filed), nevertheless it seems to have 
an active upstream.

I am currently trying to get this package building and to address the 
open BZ's. Should these efforts be without apparent failure, I'd at 
least temporarily pick up this package to prevent it from being dropped 
from Fedora.

Should somebody more interested than me show up, I'd step back into the 
co-maintainer position.

Ralf
