But it'd be much easier to make a deb as someone in Debian already
maintains one:

essentially):

Description: VIM macros that make the VIM easier to use for beginners
Cream's motto is "Cream makes the powerful Vim text editor easy!". It
brings a completely different look and feel to the VIM for those who are
used to more intuitive editors while still preservering the more powerful
features of VIM.
It features pull-down menus, color themes, bookmarking, auto spellcheck
and more. It leaves the default VIM untouched and is started by running
'cream'.

So, talk to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> if you need help packaging it. You might
not even need to package it as he'll happily continue doing it along with
whatever else he packages.
