Could you expand on this? I see no reason why we shouldn't
incorporate pms specs subject to the caveat that they can be written
in such a way as to work on the user's system.
Eg, I don't know about the Debian-distributed .debs (I believe they
currently depend unacceptably on stuff like Xaw3d), but in general
it's not hard to make a "generic" debian/rules.
