Because downstream (Debian) do a good enough job of this. See previous
discussions about this here:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.fvwm.devel/4123

I *will* not be adding either debian/ or rpm/ back to mvwm ever. It's a
maintenance burden/nightmare, and downstream are *always* better off at this
than we could ever hope to be.

Note the last reply or so from me in that thread indicates my efforts to
automagically include debian/ into fvwm at build-time. That may still work,
and might be a potential solution.
