Subject: Re: [Libbitcoin] Libbitcoin v2 Debian packages available for testing
Yep, I made a mistake there. So can I update it? I think the packages
are great and we should get people using them because nobody likes
compiling and installing on Linux. If you have packages it increases
your install rate 10x, and encourages people to test the product. So we
should be promoting these as much as possible.

The primary means of install should be install.sh. This is always current and is tested on every CI build, and it's at least as easy as using packages. Published packages should really be reserved for release branches.
