I'm pretty sure I didn't say anything at all about Debian there. What I
wanted was advice on the best platform that had a packaged, re-usable
setup available that was likely to be maintained in updates for a long

way, I'll wait. I've learned the hard way that I'm not good at
maintaining local hacks.
