Actually just less than an hour ago, the package was uploaded to debian 
unstable. But I ran sbuild on both aramo and ecne, they both FTBFS. I 
would need a weekend to investigate this, and I will add fixes to the 
"trisquel/ecne" branch in [2]. So, soon(TM).

Speaking of sbuild, on that note, debian's default setting seems to have 
switched from schroot backend to unshare, using mmdebootstrap, no root 
privilege is required. So now it can create a tarball under 
~/.config/sbuild, unpack the fakechroot to /tmp (which is tmpfs), in 
some cases faster than chroot.

Thanks!
