Perhaps when everybody on the planet has moved all of their code to
github (as seems to be happening whenever I turn around) I won't need
my tools to find out

You can just download the debian mnh package (or I think these days
there is an ubuntu one as well, I did this a long time ago) and it just works.

It's not a new problem.
