Dear Maintainer,

pigpio is pointing at the wrong Homepage - current one is 404 and an
easy typo to make (co.uk vs. me.uk).
In addition, the python package doesn't recommend the tools one so it
gets installed.

I couldn't find the source on Salsa, so here is patch to set the right
values in d/control.

Dear Peter,

the current page is not 404 anymore but became a porn site.

If you are far from your key, I can NMU if you would like…

Have a nice week-end,

If you want to NMU or even salvage the package, please go ahead. Note that
there is a FTBFS bug, so that will need to be dealt with before anything
else can be fixed.

I packaged the client side of pigpio to support remote gpio from Debian
to to raspbian/pios, but I don't use it personally.
