Ok, that's reassuring. I'll have a look at the packaging, since I'm
already on alioth.

But since DPMT is CC-ed (I normally follow via gmane), I take the
occasion to say that I _really_ _REALLY_ wished the recommendation on
git-dpm to be reconsidered, or at least relaxed.

For a newcomer, git-dpm is overkill and underdocumented.

git-dpm does not help.

On the other hand, git-buildpackage is a relatively smooth progression
from quilt, and it does provide some added convenience.
