That is very true. It would just end up with my annoying myself, knowing
that I live in a modern world of package managers, but where I am still
using a static snapshot. Maybe something that would be useful is to
consider even debianizing the source so people can build packages
quickly from latest upstream, without having to wait for Ubuntu / Debian
folks to get around to it.
