Just for clarification: My version isn't the “original,” but a fork from 
Victor Olaya's repo (volaya@). I have absolutely no idea why GitHub 
doesn't show this (“Fork from volaya/qgis-processing-saga-nextgen”). My 
patch in this fork was necessary in 2019 so that the plugin could use 
newer SAGA versions. After that, I never needed it again and lost track 
of it. Unfortunately, it also doesn’t seem to be updatable against 
original repo (pull ...).
