It can be done, though, and it should be the norm. That it is not so, that's unfortunate, and something we (both the Debian maintainers and the third-party repo maintainers, together) should improve. This, however, needs effort from both sides. My experience so far when building a third-party repo (which includes and replaces a couple of packages already in Debian) is that the effort isn't all that much, and well worth it. -- |8] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
