Yet, afaik, you use Qubes which recommends Intel and AMD and don't even mind other things (nvidia or amd gpus etc). Things are not going to becoming less crappy if we rant about them and other options are simply not there yet for many of people.
Bug#866951: ITP: yasw -- Yet Another Scan Wizard

Bug#866893: ITP: jackson-jr -- JSON library for Java -- standalone data-binding module
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Markus Koschany * Package name: jackson-jr Version : 2.8.9 Upstream Author : FasterXML, LLC, Seattle, USA * URL : https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-jr * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Java Description : JSON library for Java -- standalone data-binding module Jackson jr is a compact alternative to the full Jackson Databind component. It implements a subset of functionality, for example for cases where size of jar or startup time matters. In addition to basic datatypes the package supports reading and writing of standard Java Beans (an implementation that mimics the standard JDK Bean Introspection). Jackson jr also adds composer implementation that can be used to construct JSON output with builder-style API, but without necessarily having to build an in-memory representation: instead, it can directly use the streaming-api for direct output. It is also possible to build actual in-memory JSON String or byte[] representation, if that is preferable. This package is a new dependency to package the latest version of pdfsam.

There is future plans to making desktop backgrounds derived from the icons, but it is not implemented yet. This package is selected due to to it's simplicity(the only programming language used is Bash scripts) for learning Debian packaging, there may be less use for it to be really included in Debian, though. - is it a dependency for another package? Nope. - do you use it? Yes. - if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? Nope. - how do you plan to maintain it? As I AM the upstream the packaging wil be mainained in the upstream codebase.
