Hi Ryan,

thanks for your fast feedback. debian so far used nant 0.92 rc1 and it can
be that the package maintainer did not produce a package yet. I found this:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?maint=pkg-cli-apps-team%40lists.alioth.debian.org

So it seems there are a few things related to nant that prevent them from
putting that package into the distro. Would you like to reach out to
pkg-cli-apps-team? It would be great for us to make nant fit for use again.
