Sorry - I had not heard of it until just now. But reading the README, it
looks definitely worth playing with. I will probably give it a try on a
few packages where I have more "debatable" reasons for bundling (e.g.
proof of a working package before I try patching it to hell to work with
what modules/versions of modules we have in Debian).
