Hello,

A quick note for those willing to play with lguest...

I have been playing with lguest a little bit, for the fun. I don't
believe that the lguest sample user land tools is worth being shipped
and supported in Debian. Especially, the tool seems specific to the
kernel version it was shipped with.

For those willing to play with lguest too, I have written a script to
build an lguest package, see [1].

I concur.

Now that we have the linux-tools packages, perhaps we could put it in
there? We would need to make a separate linux-tools (unversioned name)
package as well as the versioned packages for perf. The 'nosy' Firewire
tools would also belong in linux-tools.
