Hardly. You get support on the things *in the main distribution*.
That's not the case for the package in question, which is in Universe.
This isn't enabled by default, and I believe that it's pretty clear
about the support status of those packages when you do enable
Universe.

Stick to the supported packages, and you get a supported system...
