I'm looking into converting some of my upstream packages to use Google's
bazel build system, because it makes life much easier as a developer.
Unfortunately, with my other hat on, it makes life much harder as a package
maintainer: bazel is very keen on downloading source packages and then
building

I use stuff from sbin as user all the time. A quick glance at /sbin

FWIW, I have recently tried to put together a DEP5 compliant copyright
file for a package I'm working on. I say

While installation is still a bit tortuous, they have a buildd and claim

Hi,
I'm trying to package a simple tool that wants a Japanese string in its man
