Unfortunately, there isn't. And I really have no skills whatsoever in
that area. :-(
What I had in mind, though was something like the following: For the
main cover, a picture of a handful of packages. Typical boxes,
fedex or postal boxes, closed. Maybe a pile of them. Then, for the
pkgsrc users guide page, the same pile of boxes, only they opened
and a whole bunch of little gift packages fell out of them. Finally,
for the pkgsrc developers guide page, maybe a daemon or two wrapping the
little gifts and packing the boxes. Or something like that.
The second image could be similar to
http://www.netmeister.org/tmp/pkgsrc.gif (here you see an excellent
example of what I ment with ``no skills whatsoever'' - don't ask me how
long it took me to create such a simple yet obviously not usable image
;-).
Just an idea.

Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.
