Comment 47 for bug 188564

Just a reminder - any progress on this issue.
I think after 9 years this issue should be decided to be "INVALID" or put some effort in it.

To make clear: I also found the possibility to build debian packages in launchpad a valuable service.
It would help to minimize the gap between these wonderful 2 distributions.

As noted in comment #6 the open build service from opensuse also supports beneath other distribution ubuntu and debian.
I'm not suggesting that launchpad should compete with this, but I think it should be opened up for relative distributions of the 'debian' family.
