So the FAQ would be something like:

- Where are the perl and tcl bindings?

(Does anyone know a better word for binding?)

And the answer would explain what swig is and what versions you need.
This only relates to the CVS version of course.

Ehm, I still see perl/Makefile.PL and perl/Makefile.am, they need to
be kicked ....

I couldn't resist, have fixed the debian build stuff.
You need to 'apt-get install fakeroot debhelper dpkg-dev autoconf automake1.7 libtool doxygen'
and then 'fakeroot debian/rules binary'.

It will produce 4 packages. The bindings are not included yet.
