Another crapola program for the dumpster then. Remarkably someone had the nerve to version this program above 1.0. There ought to be a law...

the program itself is probably well above 1.0 in terms of being a terminal.

but i guess someone oops-ed doing the creation of a .deb for use with maemo...

I think it is a port to maemo, so that would explain the >1 version...

Anyways, packaging stuff is a b****, I'm sure qwerty12 will get it fixed up in no time.
