Never heard of mount --bind?

I don't have my scratchbox installation on the root-disk, I just have it
bind-mounted from another partition.  Works just fine.  Of course, I'd
rather see it packaged the way a real Debian package is supposed to be.

No, Debian-packages should install things in /usr/bin, /usr/share
and /usr/lib.  It should *NOT* install things in /opt and use symlinks.

Debian packages should *NEVER* install anything to /opt or /usr/local.
