Thanks Colin.  No worries -- I've busy on other things also.

Looks like the dependency list from the mainline is missing a few
entries.  I'll check that out.

Also, here are the files for the debian folder used in the build.  Any
suggestions or corrections would be appreciated.  Wondering if there is
a way to package this all together instead of having three .deb files?
