Right now, all of the Pd library packages in Debian are one-package- 
per-library.  This is how Pd libraries are packaged and distributed on  
all platforms.  Introducing a pd-goodies means introducing some kind  
of packaging that only exists in Debian, not anywhere upstream.  That  
just adds confusion for no real gain that I can see.

Yes, pd-arraysize is a tiny bit of code.  Its been distributed this  
way for
8+ years and is widely used this way.  Its basically the only thing  
like this in the set of standard Pd libraries, so the pd-goodies  
package will end up only being pd-arraysize.

Terrorism is not an enemy.  It cannot be defeated.  It's a tactic.   
It's about as sensible to say we declare war on night attacks and  
expect we're going to win that war.  We're not going to win the war on  
terrorism.        - retired U.S. Army general, William Odom
