Some additional information that might be useful:

 - apt-able repositories are available from http://ourdelta.org/

 - Package scripts for .deb are maintained on Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/ourdelta

 - Build of packages are automated in Buildbot: https://buildbot.askmonty.org/buildbot/grid?branch=5.1-release&category=package . (It might be helpful to check build logs from this to see how the packaging scripts are used).

I can provide further information on the packaging scripts on request.

Hope this helps.
