Ok. I wasn't sure if we felt we were ready for a full-scale move to this
yet.

Sure thing.

What procedure do you suggest for packages that we don't build
ourselves, like live-config{-sysvinit}? The APT documentation [1] only
covers the case where packages are built and an appropriate .changes
file is generated.

Should I try to manually write a .changes file, e.g. by adapting the
upstream one, removing references to other packages like live-config-doc
etc.?

Or should I build the packages? What about all these irrelevant packages
(like live-config-doc) then? Upload them too?

Cheers!
