Have the Bazel build system fully integrated into Debian and supporting standard debhelper best practices and normal packaging that Debian contributors expect. ***(Debian Lead)***
# Long-Term Plan
* Implement additional conditional upstream hooks in the flags created in [the Mid-Term plan](Workplan-Part-2). ***(Bazel Lead)***
* No bundling of third party packages. The compilation of Bazel should depend only on separately packaged software/code provided by binary packages in Debian's "main" archive (not "contrib" or "non-free"). ***(Debian Lead)***
* Use the standard `bazel-latest` dependency package to depend on the latest packaged binary version. This package will also install a symlink named `/usr/bin/bazel-real` to point to the latest actual binary. It should also hold the `bazel.sh` startup script as `/usr/bin/bazel`. The above two files would *not* be included in any versioned packages (e.g. `bazel3`) ***(Debian Lead)***
