The old branches where I started developement of debian support are
still available on github (
https://github.com/javiplx). They are quite
old, but maybe there are something useful there.

I've started working on the import module for this, and it looks like
most of the functionality was there already. There were debian and
ubuntu classes created for the old import_factory() method of imports,
so I've been using that as a basis for my work on the import module.
Right now, things look like they're importing, but there's still some
cleanup required. I've also only tested on Ubuntu 10.10, so there may
be other issues as I go back to older releases and/or debian versions.
I haven't dug through your branch, but I could have sworn mpdehaan had
merged that in way back in the day.
