However, I was wondering wether it would make sense to provide to the
Debian user a mean to install the extra programs from the Debian

probcons-extra package, but only optionaly?
On the other hand, it could simply build a probcons-extra package by
default, with a clear description saying that it is likely that
probcons-extra will not be useful to the persons tempted to install it.
I think the second approach makes more sense to me as an end-user. As I
see it, the Debian Way isn't to have all sorts of USE flags and
compile-time options, but instead to provide those options to users of
binary packages.
