I acknowldge my mistake here. I don't know how I missed the fact that
there was already an existing origami package, and I am very sorry for
this.

I will fix this imediately be re-uploading the original package with a
larger version number.

Christer, how to you prefer me to handle the versioning of the package?
I can use either a) 1:0.7.4-2 or b) 1.2.7+really0.7.4-1

a) is a little worse IMO since that epoch will have to stay there
forever. the ugly bits in b) can go away as soon as the new upstream
version is > 1.2.7
