I think this would be a good idea, the problem is the wiki is a bit RH 
centric, so go ahead and add something about setting the link for 
debian, but follow the format that is already there, don't worry if it 
isn't quite right, Marc will change it.

No, but I don't think it has to be done this way, I am beginning to 
think there are other ways of doing this.
