Splitting the debian packages to be one master-package (map-icons) and then 
the subpackages map-icons-square.big, ... where the master pppppackage is a 
must for installing gpsdrive and contains the controll Files. The 
sub-packages each contain one of the themes.

And the other thing was to put all the rendering specific stuff into it's own 
directory.

Do you (or anyone else) know anything we should do before pre5?
