# When to use a native vs a non-native debian package
You should only use a native Debian package when it is clear that the
package would only ever be of use in Debian. Even if the software is
currently only available in Debian, if someone could reasonably use the
software on another distribution or on another operating system, then
the package should be non-native.
A few examples of normal packages are: libc6, apache, phpmyadmin. But
linda, lintian, dpkg and some other tools are purely developed for
debian, and make no sense being released in another distribution.

No, but I see no reason why you should build-dep on it. But I personaly
did not test it yet without, please do so.

I will review it again if (especially the first) both issues are fixed.
