Also, before we release - I'm not at all sold on the value of creating a separate mtr-packet package - I'm pretty sure I want to put that back, but we can discuss. It's only a few kb of disk savings on the mirrors and it's disk wasted on an installed system. Currently we have overlapping files between the mtr and mtr-packet packages and that wouldn't even be a problem if we just folded mtr-packet in with the mtr and mtr-tiny packages. At minimum, we need to get back to building mtr twice rather than three times.
