DataLad blend? ;)
we have a datalad package...
that repository already contains what will be hundreds (if not
thousands) packages; not sure if it would be feasible to even
contemplate introducing them into stock debian... so how to "integrate"?
the only thing which comes to mind:
- similar to the neurodebian package via debconf adding apt
line(s) for neurodebian repo, we could have datasets-datalad package
which would do similar thing
