That's not the only problem. Betamax will (and currently is) an imporant
dependency of OpenStack packages. Meaning that having it to pop in the
PKG OpenStack makes a lot of sense. Also, usually for OpenStack, I very
much dislike being slowed down because I can't update one of the
dependencies (I do at least 5 or 6 uploads every day).

Or is it that Betamax is about to be used by anything else than OpenStack?

Yes, as I would have like to be a co-maintainer, and push updates myself
to the Git, so things can be done in 30 minutes instead of a minimum of
3 days (for emails to go back and forth).

I very much would welcome help. For these 2 packages, I tried to fix
things, and couldn't find a solution yet. As they aren't really used
*yet* (ie: it's to be used by Fuel, which I didn't start uploading to
Debian yet), it has a lower priority. So by all means, please help on
these 2 packages.

Are you interested in OpenStack? :)
