Actually I'm completely new about the Debian packaging "world" and I am
still learning how it works. So I can work and contribute on the git and
let you the uploads thing.

Here is my github clone : git://github.com/kiniou/blender-debian.git
I forgot to tell I'm working/developping with Ubuntu Lucid actually but
i'm looking to build with pbuilder and Debian mirror. This is why i've
got a branch called ubuntu-lucid.

Strange ... the build failed for me at the linking process because of
openjpeg missing header. It failed only with pbuilder but not with
dpkg-buildpackage and so far I did not find any clue about this issue.

I remember that Collada export was done with some python script in 2.49
and I think it could be ported to 2.5 but maybe it's worth packaging
opencollada. Anyway for now I disabled it in the patch
10_build_configuration for tests.
