It might be of interest to anyone packaging the IDE that I've started a package of the bits needed to build any upload sketches without the IDE -- Personally, I don't care for IDEs so wouldn't want to be responsible for maintaining a package containing it, as I wouldn't be eating my own dog food, but I'd welcome anyone that wants to take my package and add the IDE back in -- all I've done is leave the source I didn't need out of the upstream branch of the git repository: http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/arduino.git
