[Pkg-clamav-devel] libclamunrar packaging

After a brief discussion with Stephen on IRC I've now set up another git
repository. Feel free to 

git clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-clamav/libclamunrar.git

Commit mails are sent to pkg-clamav-commits at lists.alioth.debian.org, I hope
that's fine with everyone (and yes, the next commit shouln't have UNNAMED
PROJECT in there anymore).

For the moment I just put the debian/ directory from the packages prepared
ealier in there in the master branch, more branches shall be set up soon.
Alberto was as kind as to provide a script with the ClamAV tarball that should
allow us to split upstream's tarball automatically. I'll try to test that as
soon as possible, but that might well take another week or so. If anyone else
finds a bit of time ealier on, feel free to set everything up in the repository.

I guess I'll just do that right now.

Best,
Michael
