Package: fingerd
Version: 0.17-14
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I only noticed this dependency because I was uninstalling finger (now
that my ISP has stopped providing service lookups via port 79); so I
can't claim it's caused me any hardship, I'm just reporting it because
it seems like a breach of the dependency definitions in policy 7.2:
Depends: update-inetd, netbase, finger, libc6 (>= 2.2.5)
Why should having a finger server installed (which may just be a
service-status autoresponder) necessarily require me to keep a finger
client on the same machine? After all, I can do *local* lookups with
the /usr/bin/pinky in coreutils.
Compare efingerd, which "Suggests: finger", and cfingerd/xfingerd,
which express no dependency on a local client at all. My patch only
changes it as far as "Recommends: finger".
