Can we remove emacs19 from unstable now? It's de facto orphaned both
upstream and in Debian, and a new version exists, supported in both
upstream and Debian.
Yes we can. We should do so, I think.
Not only emacs19 but also mule2 should be removed. Because
mule2 is multilingualized emacs19, so

Hi,
Why doesn't netstd depend: on all the packages it previously included?
When upgrading to potato, tftpd functionality is lost because the new
netstd only suggests it. And the parameters to tftpd have changed
and the new package does not update the inetd entry.

The behaviour of the user space nfs server has changed in a potentially
nasty way and there's no documentation about it in the package or
better yet at installation time.
On slink, you could put the names of symlinks in /etc/exports
