I think unofficial should probably be sufficient, although if you're prepared to maintain it, having a pointer in the README.Debian of the official package would be extremely nice. One of the things I've been speculating about in relation to this case is 64-bit problems. Scott, are you on i386 or amd64 or something else entirely? And Luis, can you build debug packages for at least the top few architectures? /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less. Well, maybe not.
