Nozzy,

Can you post your source package somewhere, I can take a look at it and 
see about including it in the games team.  Or you can join us on the 
Debian Games Team and help maintain them.

As for the current clanlib 0.8 package, I sort of got it that way.  Do 
we really need 10 different binary packages?  If upstream has some 
better ideas for binary packages, I'm up for suggestions.

Thanks,
