This may be tricky. We currently use some custom libraries and python
modules. Packaging those may conflict with the official ones. For
example we use pjsip version 1.0 with additional patches. This may not
be a problem as debian allows multiple versions of C libraries to
coexist as different packages, but if someone else decides to package
the official pjsip-1.0 then we will conflict with that.
The same way we use python-eventlet version 0.8 with some additional
fixes. We don't plan to use a newer version as they changed the API
and also stated that they plan to remove the twisted reactor adaptor
which we use. Currently I know of no way to have the same python
module at 2 different versions available at the same time in debian.
For the moment none of these is already packaged for debian, so we
have no conflict, but if someone decides to package them, we will.
