Having recently touched the tilelite packaging, I'm not so sure about
its suitability. The upstream project hasn't seen any change since 2013,
the Debian package has seen just as little activity.

TileStache seems a better alternative already available in Debian.

The standard rendering stack as used by tile.openstreetmap.org is not
available in Debian, that's a gap we should be filling. Getting
mod_tile, renderd and tirex packaged and into the archive is therefor a
worthy goal. If that's not possible due to license issues should at
least get that well documented.

Kind Regards,

Bas
