does not seem so ;(.

Hmm, ok. This would be a benefit (for [e-]uae just as well). Wishlist
bug?

Last time I checked, the "puae" software et.al.(tm) wasn't in a state
that made me inclined to package it ;), but this may have changed.

However, I still only see some git repository really; what state is
puae, as a software project, actually in?

When it comes to packaging, I guess starting out with the current e-uae
packaging as template would be fine; be sure it can co-exist with
uae/e-uae though, at least as long as I am not convinced it really
obsoletes them.

Then again, I also see a debian/ in the git repo, so maybe there is work
already done?

MfG,

Stephan
