Though to be explicit, they are adaptations of the Debian packages which
I prepare. 

It appears that the only thing added is .desktop files; unlike Ubuntu, 
Debian does not have a policy of adding those to every package (as we
have our own historical menu system). However if .desktop files were
added to the real gaf distribution I would certainly include them, and I
may yet add them to Debian's packages anyway.
