Speaking of which, could somebody do an NMU of dpkg-dev with all the
trivial patches it has accumulated in the BTS over the years?
Perhaps it should be split out of the dpkg source package -- AFAICT it
doesn't really contain anything which would force it to be the same
source package (except possibly the deb(5) manual page and some stuff
like that).
