I agree with everything Paul wrote. Building minetest against Debian's irrlicht
package would be preferable of course. You probably don't need a new source
package just for the irrlicht fork if minetest is the only "consumer" but
minetest/irrlicht should be added to the list of embedded code copies, so that
we can keep track of security vulnerabilities. We could always split the code
later if there is demand by another package but that's not very likely I guess.
Both solutions should work. Thanks for bringing this up by the way and for the
intention to work on it.

Markus
