because nobody did it? ;)

well, either that, or just dump that debian dir and do our own one
(probably on the basis that is there already).

As you got SVN access, feel free to import whatever you see fit. Yet to
keep debian versions independant from upstream, we shouldn't rely on
their debian/ dir, so either it's moved to our SVN from upstream or we
just keep it to ourselves and package with a repackaged tarball with the
upstream debian/ dir removed and replaced.
