The point of those package is to provide an easy way to install _popular_ package (that aren't suitable for priority=standard). > Something that might also be useful would be a nox-debian-devel > package which would include tools that everyone needs for packaging > (lintian, build-essentials, devscripts, dput | dupload, fakeroot, etc) This could be added, but the source would have to be renamed. There are many more packages to make a deb-devel-environment, like doc-debian, debian-policy, maint-guide developers-reference, git, svn, cvs, hg, debhelper, dpatch|cdbs, ssh-client...
