(With apologies for the late reply...)

IMO relying on official Debian arm packages is a poor substitute for a
proper 770 application installer package.  I'd like to minimize the
actions I take that require root.

(On the other hand, if an official arm package had (i) no postinst or
prerm scripts, and (ii) no internal hardcoding of its install
location, and (iii) no dependencies except "maemo", it should Just
Work as a 770 package.  Someone who knows dpkg-deb could probably
write a script to check (i) and (ii), and fix up (iii), such that a
770 package could sometimes be created automatically from an official
arm package.)
