Hi again,

Got you, responding after the message. I understand that I'm probably a bit
taxing right now as I'm figuring things out, so please bear with me, and I
hope I can have a positive contribution once bootstrapped.

So I have the source from git (0.11.2) and the source from the package
(0.13.1).

Would a patch updating the git repository to reflect the package
distributed would be valuable ? If so, where do I submit the patch ?

Thanks,

Amaury SECHET
