I like so much this project and I couldn't help before, so I try help
with small things.

Yes, I saw your comment. My idea was to get the package ready so when
the final version be released the package will be already revised.
Also for getting an easy and clean way to test mago with the last
LDTP2 version.

I could create a PPA for that (or maybe at mago-contributors) for
getting updated the packages with the last version.

That explains everything... :-P
I got the code from the git repository:
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/ldtp/ldtp2

Maybe, for the packaging bugs we could use the REVU comments, because
the LDTP1 page in launchpad is actually for another package, so it
could be a bit confusing.
