Yes, I do get amused from time to time =)))) but to make bibletime
package work "my-way" needs history rewritting and I am against
rewritting history at all times =)

I follow more or less: http://jameswestby.net/bzr/builddeb/user_manual/

Above link works for xiphos and sword. Although for sword we create
dfsg tarball from upstream branch and import that.
For bibletime - tarball import with builddeb plugin doesn't work
because the history for tarball imports wasn't done on a
sub-merged-branch.

As long as you tag stuff and don't do stupid things everything works ok =))))
