So one way to do this is to have each of our built-in subprojects (allmydata, foolscap, zfec, and now simplejson) produce separate eggs, and have some debian glue that produces separate .debs for each. Given that both foolscap and simplejson have native ways of producing .debs, it would be good for the tahoe .deb to not include them (to allow both tahoe and the native .debs of foolscap or simplejson be installed at the same time).
