Interesting.. just a couple days ago I started to work on PGAPT-ing
pgtap as well. As with other packages before, I think the hardest part
is to make the Makefile VPATH aware. I intend to file a patch upstream,
soon-ish. Next step: autopkgtesting.
Regarding packaging: I don't think there's enough flesh to warrant a
-common package, as the per-Pg-package weigh in at around 90K. I'm
considering a separate -doc package, though. (Barely heavier, either.)
Also note that pgtap already is in Debian (well, has been). I contacted
the current maintainer (Pierre Chifflier AKA pollux), but didn't get
feedback on how he prefers me to contribute. Pierre?
Myon: Am I correct that PGAPT needs a git repo to fetch from? Or can we
handle other sources, there?
