It contains two dwm binaries with different configurations:

/usr/bin/dwm.default
/usr/bin/dwm.web

Not really a big choice but better than just one variant.

Makes packaging way easier.

Anyway, I'll probably wait with uploading to Debian until there's some
configurability besides recompiling. But whoever wants to build his
own .deb out of it, can do that with the code at
