Yes, a possible solution to this issue is to introduce a 4th embedding. That might be your understanding of keeping packaging simple. Not mine. That might be your understanding of team maintenance. Not mine. > Connecting unrelated packages together is making things complicated > for transitions and also increases installed packages size. Yes, a possible solution to this issue is to introduce the embedded module in another package _instead_ of these three. An example of a package providing tiny modules are real binary packages (which ftpmaster evidently had no problem accepting) is is node-file-entry-cache which also provides related packages node-flat-cache and node-write. An example of a package providing a tiny module as virtual package is node-uuid also providing virtual package node-types-uuid. Yes, another possible solution to this issue is to introduce the embedded module as part of a batch of related related modules, none of them being the "main" one (depending on the meaning of "main"). An example of that (evidently also acceptable to ftpmasters) is jsbundle-web-interfaces providing binary packages node-auth-header, node-standard-error, node-standard-http-error and node-webidl-conversions. > Also 'should' is not 'must' in policy.
