You are right. It is possible with little effort. But it will not appear in 
the PPA automagically. Someone has to upload it and may tweak a few 
dependencies here and there.

This is the work I am talking about. It takes about 1-2 hours to get the 
excellent Debian package into the GNUmed-PPA for multiple Ubuntus.

That is the work I am talking about.

BTW. Does anyone have the time to upload Ginkgo-CADx ?
Before doing so upstream reported on the patch Andreas had trouble with. 
Please view the other thread,
