sounds reasonable, but I don't know much about the howto.
test value in /etc/debian_version & if so apply patch?

patch to build minimal all-in-one package for Etch is attached.
(I don't bother with separate -maps package, etc.)
apply patch, run "debuild binary", done.

patch is for GpsDrive's SVN debian/ dir. I would like to keep in mind
ease of sync'ing with the DebianGIS packaging for the pre7 release so
it can go into sid as soon as lenny is out the door.

actually our (NZ) gov't has released full road/walking track/etc vectors
under a generous Free-with-attribution license, and AFAICT OSM upload/
integration waits on finalization of the internal OSM geodata license
debates.

raw GPX logs/"GPS Traces" for every road in the country has already been
uploaded to OSM (sourced from a diff't gov't roading dept). So I just
wait.... (and google has now published street-view for every road in the
country too!)
