Hi David,
it's great to get feedback on that bit so I know people are actually
using these things.
For Debian/sid, there are already packages all the way back until 8.2,
so it will probably not be hard to extend the coverage to these. It
will need a bit more work because the packages were only made for sid,
and possibly need some readjustments for the other distributions.
The problem with 9.0 is that it doesn't support arm64, but I can
exclude the architecture from that package.

I guess I should put a version matrix into the wiki page with the
version coverage.
