I'm hesitant to allow this one in to the 6.8 packages, but I think it'll
be fine.

I definitely do not want to remove the current Ubuntu stuff. I explicitly
left it in when I was auditing their packaging because I don't want to
actively work against sidegrades. A lot of people seem to like to mix and
match their ubuntu and Debian stuff, and I don't want to prevent that
needlessly.

As for the other stuff, I'll have to look more closely at it.
