Why wouldn’t containerization be the right solution?
A “container” is an archive (eg, tarballs) of the contents, a hash chain of the construction, and some config data about cgroups and namespaces to run it with. Turn off the parts you don’t want — I usually turn off virtualized networking, for instance.
It’s a more lightweight package that doesn’t have versioning problems and doesn’t require crazy installation scripts — what benefit is traditional Debian packaging supposed to have?
