Would it be possible to split Pyrite into ``pyrite'' & ``pyrite-dev''

Well, if you're bored, you might take a look at the SyncBuilder package.
(http://come.to/SyncBuilder) I have a copy, but either the installation
instructions are outdated (or just plain wrong) or the package is missing

apt-get, instead of fiddling with the tarball, I would not have to deal
with this problem...
