libtermkey, which Nama uses for the hotkey mode, has been
packaged for Debian, so with that available, version 1.204
of Nama is part of Debian (unstable), the first time since
2011. Thanks to the graybearded elves of the Debian Perl
Team, heroes of the tool-chain, who found time to do all of
the updates needed, including a couple patches for spelling
and pod formatting.

While the complexity of the Debian spec seems tedious, Debian
package system installs all of the dependencies, whereas
CPAN only handles dependencies among perl language
libraries.

In future I think we'll be able to keep the Debian package
updated more often.

cheers
