That's the main reason why we are very hesitant to create our own
Debian packages: Michael keeps up pretty closely and he of course does
much better packages than we with out limited know-how in this regard
could do.

@Michael: does that mean it would be a good idea to begin creating
packages ourselfs?. Don't misunderstand me: I am far from being eager
to do so, but if we are otherwise stuck with 8.16 and json-c, it would
be reasonable to do so IMHO. If we could avoid it, that would be much
better, though.
