It is unclear what "rip" is in this context - seems it is something 
unavailable in Debian, and therefore probably unsuitable for long 
description (at least without being properly introduced).

Homesick seems to be quite related to vcsh.  Would be nice if long 
description compared with that.

...or better: Perhaps vcsh obsoletes homesick, or vice versa?
