Actually, what I'm talking about is the systemimager-debian repository,
which is where we host the official source for Debian (and where
Geoffroy contributed a lot of work a while back).

Making sure the devel branch builds/works on a Debian system is
obviously a good thing. However, the packages in Debian are still on
3.6 which we obviously don't want to continue shipping.

I've yet to see anyone express real interest (read: submit patches) in
helping/taking over the official packages - Geoffroy has helped a lot,
but his primary interest is Oscar which has less rigourous
requirements than Debian in a number of ways.

Unless this changes I suppose I'll just orphan them and request their
removal, recommending that users move to the non-Debian builds.
