I've orphaned luit. The only user of it was xterm and it recently dropped support for luit so there are no users left. Whether there are *any* users left is unclear too :)

The luit package we shipped is still the freedesktop.org one which has been unmaintained for about a decade now. Upstream now points to Thomas Dickey's fork at http://invisible-island.net/luit/ so if anyone wants to take this, I advise switching to that version as part of the first steps.

Cheers, Peter
