The time limit implies that you have a strategy to package this or what?
Or is the time limit because you dont't have time to find a strategy?

If you have a strategy I would be more then happy to help implement
it, unfortunately I have little idea how the debian package environment
works and dont't have the expertise to make up a debian package for
myself but would be more then willing to learn if you were willing to
guide me through the process.
