Binary packages have a cost. They are useful when they have additional
dependencies (that are optional for the main package) or when better
sharing is achieved (typical cases: -doc, or -common packages). Maybe
other cases.

My remark was not related to the python version. I was just wondering if
unison-fsmonitor could be provided by existing packages instead.

Since this needs to go through the NEW queue, I will take the
opportunity to create a package co-installable with the one in stable,
as Vincent suggested.


Cheers,
