Indeed. I am willing to build *some* packages (and submit them to Debian),
but that willingness is decidedly not infinite.

The first question that somebody who proposes to add a new dependency
should ask themselves is this: is there a way to accomplish the task at
hand without adding a new dependency?  If not, can the task at hand be
accomplished using packages that are already in Debian stable?  If not,
does the dependency at least have an active third-party ITP (intent to
package) in the Debian bug tracker?

Regards,

Galen
