Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mit-scheme

In bug #341832 and bug #339449 a binary .deb file was uuencoded and
added to the Ubuntu source package.

This is just wrong in so many ways. :)  Technically, the Ubuntu source
package does not really count as the source to the Debian binary
package, so this is at the very least a licensing issue.

I think the best long-term fix is to package mit-scheme-c, and then use
that to bootstrap mit-scheme.

** Affects: mit-scheme (Ubuntu)
