 Well, we have to make sure that there are no ubuntufications there. The 
 Debian 
 reasons are that the ubuntu-dev-tools contains some scripts/apps that are 
 useful with sbuild tool (like bootstrapping, lvm images, etc.). It is about 
 those tools and some others[1] that could be a good contribution to debian 
 tools.

The point of packaging u-d-t in Debian is that it provides tools that
are useful to Ubuntu developers running Debian (my case, for example).
Some of the tools in ubuntu-dev-tools are better suited for other
packages, like devscripts, but packaging u-d-t as is doesn't prevent
those scripts from being moved to devscripts at some point in the
future.

As you might have guessed from the comments here there are people
interested in or already using this package in Debian. There aren't
that many ITPs that instantly get 2 «Hey cool, do it» replies and
those other paackages get in nontheless.

Hi.

Why do we need this? I've always thought we were Debian and not Ubuntu?

And if devscripts are lacking some important functionality,.. why not  
adding it there (where it belongs to)?


Best wishes,
Chris.
