Until > e2fsprogs isn't non-essential, it's at least not "serious". [...] >From my point of view given that e2fsprogs now and also in the future will be part of every normal installation, the only thing that makes any difference if there's a missing *dependency* relationship. When the relationship should rather be Recommends or Suggests it might be seen as better to be explicit about that.... thus the minor severity. The change would be mostly theoretical and informational. (You might be right that ext* is worthy of a special bump to Recommends.) Ofcourse, seeing the bug report fixed would be much better than arguing over its severity though.... Hopefully now that we've discussed all this we can see the change swiftly uploaded. Regards, Andreas Henriksson
