Dear list,

I've just created package files for obnam (http://liw.fi/obnam/), a backup 
program. Since the creator packaged some of his code as separate libraries, 
this means I now have five separate packages to upload: obnam, 
python-larch, python-ttystatus, python-cliapp and python-tracing. Does this 
make sense, or would it be better to combine these (probably by 
successiviely building and installing each package with PYTHONHOME=$pkgdir)?

My second question is what category to use? 'lib' for the four libraries 
and 'utils' for obnam itself?

Cheers,
Diggory
