Ok, nice, thanks :) It would be better if you didn't tag the head revision ;) > The pieces can be built with LeoCAD from the LDraw files ( > http://www.ldraw.org/Downloads-req-getit-lid-98.html, or follow the download > link at LDraw.org).

That's not the issue :) The point is to comply with the Debian Free Software Guidelines: we have to keep the source in Debian, and build everything from source. No precompiled binaries, even if they're freely redistributable :) I'll check if the pieces library license is acceptable; and whether it is buildable with free tools. I'll report back if any new issue arises. Thank you for your collaboration :) David -- . ''`.
