Description:

Package url is https://github.com/apenwarr/sshuttle, but new version is from a
fork, https://github.com/sshuttle/sshuttle

Additional info:
* Version 0.71

Also, a related question:

Why did you decide to switch the package to a fork? A quick glance at the
fork's commit history shows that the majority of the changes address OS X
and Debian compatibility issues, and the majority of the rest introduce new
features, which may introduce new bugs.

Thanks!
This task depends upon

There was no activity in original upstream for nearly 3 years, and we are not the only distribution that switched to this fork (Debian/Ubuntu also did it).

The package url has been fixed in trunk.
