Great.

Actually, before I knew about the Ubuntu package by Martin Sievers, I had a
project about trying to package TeXworks for Debian, but gave up because I had a
hard time trying to learn how .debs are made, because all examples assume the
auto* way of building things, while the Qt way is quite different. But now, with
the package already done for Ubuntu, I could probably help "backporting" it to
Debian.
