Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this process requires that trunks include
their packaging (i.e. debian/ directory).  For historical reasons,
lp:ubuntu-system-image/client does not -- IOW, there is a separate packaging
branch.

In this case, it would not be hard to merge the two, and probably makes sense
anyway, but I'm trying to understand whether this is an implicit requirement
of the new process or not.  If so, it should probably be made explicit.
