Is there any reason why they haven't been packaged? A package would : * be a huge overhead given the script size. * be useful only for mirrors running Debian * would add a limited added value compared to a git clone/pull that already allow easy script update * require work for a something we consider as limited added value Best regards. -- Simon Paillard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
