Hello! I'm cc:ing Joshua Rubin (the ThinkFinger co-maintinaer) and d-d to have more comments.

I'm aware of the common practice and this is the reason why I specifically asked for an advice. ATM I don't really see any reason to create a separate package just for tf-tool, because libthinkfinger + tf-tool (binary and manpage) should generate a package around less than 50K in size. In case new tools will be added, we can split the package. Is a strong reason against this? BTW, thanks for your suggestion about the package name, thinkfinger-tools would be definitively better. >> [2] I still have a problem, because e.g. "PAM module for the SGS >> Thomson Microelectronics fingerprint reader" is longer than the >> expected 60 characters for the short description.
