I've actually done this, before finding this message. See https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/dpkg-dev-el https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/debian-el The former depends on the latter, as it turns out. FWIW, I don't think any binary package ought to start with "elpa" and end "-el" or "\.el", but other than that I'm flexible about the naming. I (so-far) had the idea that "dpkg-dev", and "debian" could be upstream packages in e.g. melpa-stable. OTOH, "debian" is annoyingly generic, so that might have to change. d
