ok - im just advising that it is not necessary for you to duplicate work that 
is already being done

if this is for your own use then clearly you could just compile from the git 
source - if you are packaging with other people in mind then this is probably 
not worth doing - it's not clear how you would evven distribute it

a new package would not be accepted into debian because that project is already 
in debian - they would want the existing package to be updated with the updated 
sources - if you really wanted to help update it then the best thing to do 
would be to contact the maintainer and ask to help - the alioth repo here 
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/opendht.git shows that "New 
upstream version 1.3.4" has already been packaged
