Hi Ondrej,

thanks for looking at my package.

Does it matter, how big the source package is? Since the files you mention 
don't end up in the binary package, I'd rather just leave it as is.

Yes, upstream and me really like to have each component in an individual 
binary package. Upstream puts big efforts into makeing each component 
independent and usable as standalone. This also allows you to update each 
component separately and install only the needed components on production 
machines.

Can I convince you? :-)
