But there's also a single lacheck distribution. BTW it doesn't matter if
they bundle it or not. We have to see what's best for our distribution.
There are other bundled packages where two debian packages result from one
source.
IMO we cannot force everyone who likes to use lacheck to install emacs.
What do you think?
