Hello everybody,

there is also the problem that a non-free source package is not allowed to
produce binary packages for the main archive… Perhaps the best solution for the
moment is to keep the glam2 source and binary packages and have the meme binary
package ship the glam2 programs and conflict against the glam2 package ?

Have a nice day,
