I don't know about taler-payment. I just package merchant and that other
part which requires building, the rest does not need packaging.

About a huge piece of software, I don't see this. I see modules, and at
the rootlevel svn it has many individual pieces, one of them being
gnunet. I have no access to the roadmap, but I can ask for a further
splitup / makefile options to be added. Makefiles are not so much my
domain and I wiuld like to add this, but I focus on other things.
