290 elpa packages on Debian, but no tramp

[積丹尼 Dan Jacobson]

I swear there is a lot of elpa packages here on Debian sid,

# apt-cache search ^elpa|wc -l
290

Alas, tramp is not in the t's:

# apt-cache search elpa|sort|grep -C 1 ^elpa-t
elpa-systemd - major mode for editing systemd units
elpa-tabbar - Emacs minor mode that displays a tab bar at the top
elpa-tablist - tablist adds maks and filters to tabulated-list-mode
elpa-transmission - Emacs interface to a Transmission session
elpa-treepy - Generic tree traversal tools
elpa-tuareg - emacs-mode for OCaml programs
elpa-undercover - test coverage library for Emacs Lisp

In fact nowhere at all:

# apt-cache search ^elpa|grep -ic tramp
0

That's all I know.
