I guess one more message to the list won't hurt.  I've seen
rarewares.org before, but haven't messed with their packages.  I once
did some digging looking for a source repo for rarewares, and marillat
once but came up empty.  I was searching I think because rarewares
doesn't have amd64 build (that I could find).  Ideally we could just
use their sources as a start and go from there.  Kind of like Ubuntu
does with Sid.  Granted I have not real ability as a packager other
then possible tweaking a rules file a bit to make it compile.

I'll look into this some more tomorrow.  I have a little time at home,
but am probably off on a business trip for 6-8 weeks some time in May.
