Sorry for my long inactivity.

I just rework my packaging[1] against the latest MoarVM 2015.02 :

- install libmoar outside of the "standard linker path"[2]

- generate the manpage from the pod file

- use dpkg-buildflags instead of hardening-wrapper

Actually, lintian says:

    W: moarvm source: empty-short-license-in-dep5-copyright (paragraph at line 50)
    P: moarvm source: debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature
    W: moarvm: hardening-no-relro usr/bin/moar
    I: moarvm: hardening-no-fortify-functions usr/bin/moar
    W: moarvm: hardening-no-relro usr/lib/moar/libmoar.so
    I: moarvm: hardening-no-fortify-functions usr/lib/moar/libmoar.so
    I: moarvm: extended-description-is-probably-too-short

I think I'll need to patch the build system to use the environment
variables for *FLAGS for hardening.

I wonder if I should have a -dfsg branch to remove the 3rdparty
libatomic_ops and libtommath since I build against the Debian ones.

Regards.
