Absolutely... I had to cd into each of several dirs containing source
for udebs and run dpkg-buildpackage in each one. I'd like to see a
situation under which I would type make -once-, and it builds all the
udebs. Yes, I understand they will be downloadable someday... For now,
let me type make once to build everything :)
