Nice.  I started making a list of projects using Firehose in the
README.rst and added a link.

Those would be:
https://github.com/paultag/storz/blob/master/storz/deb.py
right?

If every Debian project using Firehose is going to use code like that,
then it would makes sense to slurp that into Firehose itself, but I
don't want to force dependencies on people using Firehose that aren't
using the deb functionality (I see you have a couple of "from debian"
imports, which don't exist on this box).
So you could put these into a new firehose/debian.py, or alternatively
put the imports into *method scope* within firehose/report.py, and have
a couple of DebianBinary.from_deb() and DebianSource.from_dsc()
classmethods.  (If you also want to slurp in the exception classes into
firehose you'd want to rename them also, naturally)

Cheers
