Is that referring my work or the current csound debian package structure 
currently in the released tarballs? I am going to assume it is my work we are 
talking about.

Debian packages are usually made *after* a release. This is because a Debian 
source package consists of: the original tarball, a diff which contains all 
debian-related work, and a third file (the .dsc) describing the other 2 files 
(names and cehcksums) plus some extra info. The idea is to separate 
distro-specific issues from upstream development. With that in mind, I have 
no packages ready[1] (I have been working with 5.06, not CVS), but that 
should not hold the release of 5.07.


[1] Actually, I do have packages that build and install correctly, but they 
don't still comply with Debian Policy, which is why I haven't publicized them 
yet.
