I’ve pushed my current WIP to the experimental branch
(along with two new upstream-<component> branches for the MUT
origtgz for the benefit of pristine-tar, and the updates to
the upstream and pristine-tar branches) and got it to work for
me for now.

I’ve found tons of things, of course, and forwarded what I could
to upstream already.

We’ll want to consider splitting off the big usr/share into a
performous-common package (says lintian). I can do that and
upload, in arbitrary order, to sid or experimental.

>upstream split performous-tools off into a separate repository,

Nik told me in the meantime he was already working on this.

>Feedback, agreement, disagreement, anything?

bye,
