Packaging of osm2pgsql-replication?

Hi!

For about a year now osm2pgsql comes with "scripts/osm2pgsql-replication",
a Python script which is the easiest way to keep an osm2pgsql database
up-to-date with changes from OSM. So far this is not packaged in the
Debian osm2pgsql package, which was good, for the script was new and
needed some seasoning. But some people are using it now and some bugs
have been fixed, so maybe it is time to package this? Currently it is
not installed with "make install", but we are thinking about adding that
in the next version. A man page is already available.

Problem is the script needs python, pyosmium and psycopg2. I am not sure
whether its worth it to have so many more dependencies? Or would this
have to go into a different package anyway, because it is architecture
independent?
