So I've done that. I've audited the code and did some basic packaging
(mostly thanks to py2dsp, but i did the job in full), and the result is
here:

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/waybackpack

waybackpack works, but with one major limitation: it downloads only a
single URL at a time, not an entire site.

so I'm abandoning the packaging for now, anyone feel free to pick it up
and just upload it if you feel like it, but i don't quite see the point
myself.

now i guess we need to find the right machine-downloader fork now...
