*sigh* fat fingered the rsync.  It's there now.

Upstream is something like "blktrace-git-20070730162628.tar.gz"

162628 is a timestamp, 16:26:28.  It's how the snap from the upstream tarball is
named.  I put "git" on the end just trying to follow some of the "pre-release
naming conventions" I found on the wiki.  I could use a git hash instead if
preferred...  since there is no release on this upstream package, I'm not really
sure how to do the versioning.  I'm open to any suggestions.

I'm also considering skipping the latex->pdf part of the build process, would
lighten up the build & chroot setup a bit, for a little hacker tool like this. 
There are already man pages & a README.

Thanks,

-Eric
