you've just described it better this time.. i really thought having it sit in different packages..

Just for clarity: There is two types (well, actually more, but that is not important now) of debian packages: source packages and binary packages. Source package .dsc is what packager sends to builder (lpbuild/distro). Binary package .deb is what end user usually installs on his machine. We would have one .dsc, which is built into several .debs.

The dependencies will than take care about installing all the packages when installing 'upp'.

Very similar holds also for Arch Linux and probably most of other packaging systems.
