Yeah, I can only imagine. And they're not all in one great big git
repo either! That's one reason I thought pushing it into the

"Build-Depends-If-Available: foo" as "Build-Depends: foo | something"
is a bad idea from the get-go. After all, foo can have three states on
an architecture: installable, unavailable, or
available-but-uninstallable-for-some-reason. And we want different
behaviour in the three cases: build

I'm maintaining mlpack. It is able to generate julia bindings, so on
