Absolutely
BTW I am not sure but I think there are some debian servers 
where You may build packages , but it doesn't change anything.

Yeah, I understood now.........

Torben that way I _must_ use my two left machines , and Yours of course
and maybe another one.
I understand Your idea, but how You want to build for example 'testing' midgard 
packages?
On what system? If You have testing debian running and want to build package
it is sure that if I install it on unstable debiuan I will have some not nice 
surprices.
Have a look at this day:

Unstable Debian has PHP 4.2.x
Testing Debian had PHP 4.1.2

These packages won't work as they should be. I won't be experimenting 
with such packages on production server. I would rather use unstable 
system for that.
