There are many modules with only one or a few packages (less than 10). At some point, we'll have to revisit this, and figure out a better organization. Debian has a category for HAM Radio packages. So, I thought it's ok to create ham-radio.scm for rtl-sdr. > Also, just in case you are working on it as well, I have > work-in-progress for gnuradio (something fails so I didn't submit it > yet). It might save some effort in that case: I'll look into it. =
