Yes, I wanted to write this in my reply, but then I forgot. Thanks for
bringing it up.

BTW, speaking of discoverability, here[1] is the package description
that I wrote for Debian. If anybody has improvements to suggest, please
let me know. The description text will appear in package managers and on
packages.debian.org when users browse the metamath package (this[2] is
what the Debian policy has to say on the description text).

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#the-description-of-a-package

Any other suggestion on the packaging work, especially by those actually
using it within Debian or any derivative, is welcome as well.

Giovanni.
