I'm resurrecting the question above, because as of commit 2eb17b6, gcsfuse has
its dependencies vendored. (For the standard reason: it makes it much much
easier to get a reproducible build, insulates against backwards-incompatible
API changes, etc.) How does Debian generally treat such project? I apologize if
this causes a bunch of extra work.
