Ick. Its a bit sad that folks have to reinvent packages and
repositories poorly for the sake of those platforms.

If you want to maintain both premake 3 and premake4 for a period of
time then file a new ITP.

If you want to maintain just premake4 then retitle the ITA to ITP: premake4...

Personally I would just leave premake orphaned and remove it after the
wheezy release, so option 2.

Personally I would base premake4 off the premake source package. Just
rename stuff as needed.
