Having systemd Provides: netbase doesn't really make sense. systemd doesn't provide that functionality after all. You could ask the netbase maintainer, Marco, though, if he was open to drop the Recommends: ifupdown or demote it to Suggests. That would seem like a reasonable suggestion to me. So I'm reassigning this to netbase and let Marco decide. Regards, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
