For future sake, when you have an idea for a packaging trick but am unsure if it'll work, you might find it helpful to lookup if others are doing something similar - e.g. at https://codesearch.debian.net/ using this search query: LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 path:debian > Would you be okay to merge the requests and upload the packages Jonas? Sorry, I have 20+ years of experience maintaining packages in Debian, with 10+ years doing so with a git-buildpackage-ish workflow, and currently maintain 600+ packages. All my experience is however done project-centric, and I feel totally alienated by the multi-project packaging approach practiced in the Haskell and Rust teams. So no, I cannot (or rather will not invest needed time to learn to) handle multi-project package maintenance. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
