I’m not convinced that we need quilt (can’t do plain git what we need),
but otherwise I agree that the packages need some clean up before the
final upload.

BTW, installing the scenarios in /usr/share, and have fso-frameworkd
look in /etc first sounds good. We can implement that as a Debian
specific patch if upstream does not like it.

I’m fine with that. I forgot pypennotes in the list, which also needs a
cleanup release with regard to binary name capitalization.

Agreed.

OTOH, nodm makes it clearer that this is no dm, and not part of some
kind of N Desktop Environment. Maybe something more obvious like auto-dm
or dummy-dm would be even more useful?

Greetings,
