It's probably worth looking at other projects that do this. Perhaps IOhannes has some ideas working with Debian, etc. I'm less familiar with this approach as I'm used to downloading and building the source-only tarballs for other projects.<div class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Like a lot of things, there might be support for this style distribution in autoconf/automake and we just need to use it (hopefully).
