In Debian, ghdl-common provides almost all files that are present under vhdl_libraries. In general, vendoring code is frowned upon in Debian, and since the files present are identical, I would prefer it if this ghdl-common was natively supported as drop-in.
According to https://ghdl.github.io/ghdl/using/ImplementationOfVITAL.html vital2000 is not yet supported; if the ieee2008, std and synopsys parts could be sourced form ghdl-common this would help a lot.
I can provide a MR is this is something you agree on
