Am I right.  Is there any way to accomodate it in Debian?
Yes, you're right; the programs were written by Progeny. I think that 
Eric Gillespie did most of the work on that.

The last I heard, some of Progeny's work was going to be released into 
Debian, but I don't think that it's been done yet.

Even if it has, I'm not sure that *apt-pkgset would be useful. The 
number of package sets that were created were relatively few, and don't 
include most Debian packages. More importantly,  since the apps group 
packages into sets,  I believe that keeping them useful would be a 
high-maintenance job.
