Thanks, and here are some remaining issues:

1. Is it easy to define a Dorsal package file for python-netcdf and add
it to the sid platform?
2. Does anyone know why petsc/slepc might be broken on maverick and squeeze?
3. We need to similarly add VTK path information to the rhel/fedora
platforms. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/dorsal/+bug/888930)

Anything else?
