Ping! :-)
Could you please send an updated patch with synopsis/description and
with the latest release tarball instead of the git checkout (or explain
in a commentary why a specific git commit is needed).
Also, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to build it, as I don't want to build
'texlive' (vte-ng → gtk-doc → dblatex → texlive). I hope someone else
will do :-)
