Sure, although the debian package wasn't maintained as part of
linux-gpib since that was just redundant.  The guy maintained the
packaging as part of the debian distribution.  And getting the package
into debian would automatically make it available to (later releases
of) ubuntu, right?  Also FYI I'm planning soonish to split the kernel
drivers from the user space stuff.  So in the svn the top level
directory "linux-gpib" will be split into "linux-gpib-kernel" and
"linux-gpib-user".
