Description
-----------

Hi,
I have been trying to push a commit since several weeks now. All without success. Now, I'm leaving for my homeland for about 2 years and will not be able to commit it anyway. So, I'm attaching the packager.module file after my modifications. I've modified the Ubuntu and Debian part. I don't quite get the 'MakeDebSupportPackage'. What is it meant to do?
BUT I've changed the MakeDebPackage and MakeDebSupportPackage codes to be more standards-compliant and to fix the blurry icons issue on Ubuntu. I've tested it and it still gives Lintian output as clean as before.
Also, a suggestion: Please change the 'small' icons to 22x22 (toolbar icons) or 16x16 (menu icons). 'Small' icons are usually down-scaled versions of 22x22 icons. That results in blurry icons that do not make the button's purpose clear.
The menu icons should be 16x16. Because if set to 'small', 22x22 icons are down-scaled to 16x16 anyway. Which, again, results in blurry icons.
On some icon themes, this looks HORRIBLE! But in others, like Breeze, its noticeable but not too bad. And in rare ones like Numix-Circle, which uses SVG icons and not PNG, its fine.
Thanks.
