Also with regards to it being deleted from Debian, I believe it was because they didn't like that PTS has the ability to install additional packages (external dependencies) itself. You could add all of the possible PTS dependencies to the Debian package itself, but then it would bring in a whole number of dependencies that likely aren't going to be needed/used, depending upon what test(s) the user wants to run for benchmarking so for that reason PTS handles them dynamically and calls APT or the respective distribution's packaging mechanism when it needs a given dependency for a particular test.
