Actually, this is not a case - it's more a question of manpower and 
knowledge :)

Yes, we plan to add more package formats apart from tarballs in the future,
it's on my TODO. Debian packages are quite high on the priority list there,
but I don't know, when I will be able to start with it - I have a lot of
RPM background, but I need to read up on how to build DEBs. Do I need to
have Debian installed? Or is it sufficient to install the required tools
on another distribution?
