This might be a daring idea, but what about naming the platform dependent package (i.e. theide binary) just "theide"?
It might be good for PR... If someone searches for IDE (in synaptic, aptitude etc.), it would be one of the results. If it catches his attention, he will find out about U++ as well very soon.
The other package could then be just "upp" (which is fine, as the sources really are the body of U++) and depend on theide.

It will hurt a bit during updates as well, but I don't think finer splitting will save that much updates, and it will make the platform less consistent (in case somebody runs into problem, we will have to figure out which packages did he install, and which ones did he omit, etc.).

I agree. Plus someone would have to write some ugly code to determine what to update
