I've briefly glanced in the past at OpenFOAM packaging, and decided
that it would be a huge task, mostly because coaxing OpenFOAM to obey
Debian and Ubuntu policy is going to be a very difficult task. Besides
having a very arcane build system and being a monster package, it also
has some very weird usage expecting to be run under its own user with
many environment variables set.

How did you address those issues?
