confirmed upstream is dead.

i'm tempted to say this is obsolete considering testdisk exists and supports NTFS, but at the same time at least i won't have to keep maintaining new releases.

i'll have this fixed up in the next 15-30 minutes or so.

@obayhan-

Please don't flag a package out-of-date if it doesn't have a new version available, just leave a comment.

It looks like upstream is dead at the moment, but domain hasn't hit expiry yet. I suspect this is a temporary outage. I've emailed upstream, but I expect service to restore shortly.

@leuko-

thanks for the heads-up! sorry for the delay in reply.

this is... tricky. the github repo doesn't have any tags, so i'd have to either move this package to a -git package that tracks master, get the author to use tags (or branches, but tags are preferred) - though it appears that they aren't the original author, OR wait and hope the site comes back up.

let me try to reach out to those two git contributors and see if i can get some answers on how to move forward. hopefully i'll have this resolved quickly.
