> So what? Do I have to use it? You have a point, but: what determines if we put something as Depends or as Recommends is not what will confuse our users less. What determines it is if the dependency is _absolutely_ necessary, or there are some scenarios (though rare) in which it is not necessary. Note that this is what our Policy mandates. kppp has an _absolute_ dependency on ppp (Christopher says so, and he knows better than I), so there you go with the Depends. OTOH, see Bug#289189 for an example where using Depends: would help some people, but it is not done because the dependency is not absolute. You can always have a look at equivs and make a dummy kppp package. -- Adeodato Simó EM: asp16 [ykwim] alu.ua.es | PK: DA6AE621 Algebraic symbols are used when you do not know what you are talking about. -- Philippe Schnoebelen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
