As you were asking for feedback from Ubuntu users:
Ubuntu Edgy (6.10):
Adding your mentioned deb-src line to /etc/apt/sources.list and
issuing "apt-src install -b root" builds all .debs fine. They install and
work as expected in a trivial test. I moved them online, in case you want to
retrieve them and put them online somewhere yourself:
http://141.30.17.189/fsiegert/ubuntu-root/5.13.05-5/edgy
Ubuntu Dapper (6.06):
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies:
debhelper (>= 5.0.37.2) available is: 5.0.7ubuntu13
python-support (>= 0.3) available is: 0.1.1ubuntu1
I tried to naively remove those version dependencies, but it seems like they
are really needed (note e.g. line 12):
http://141.30.17.189/fsiegert/ubuntu-root/5.13.05-5/dapper/log
If you ping me a day or two before you need them, I'd be
glad to also build those packages for Edgy (and Dapper?) in the future, so
that you can provide them in your repository. But since I don't have any
Debian packaging experience, I cannot resolve problems like the one above.
