Since it is now packaged by Debian is it still necessary to be
maintaining Debian packaging?
This is mainly to make it easier for Debian maintainers. Someone might
also want to build a .deb package for a different version or flavour
of Debian.
Having a look at the Debian version, they have made quite a few changes
against our packaging. It might be worth getting some patches from
them that are not specific to Debian policy (like the setup of bash
completion).
I don't follow the Debian package much but I'll have a look to see the
differences.
