Yeah, but working around the anti-distro properties of that packages. A
proper SWUpdate would build against all features and be configurable
during runtime.

Given that this is an anti pattern, I'm still not sure about what to do
with it. We are carrying it for SWUpdate for quite a while but that's
still the only user. Do we really see others? Or should we better invest
in fixing SWUpdate so that we can use its original Debian package, one day?
