Dear Maintainer,
I believe this is actually an apt bug, so copying deity, but maybe you'll see
my point:
There is a difficult-to-reproduce condition where some other package
Depends/Recommends x-terminal-emulator, and via dependency resolution, apt
installs zutty to satisfy it.
I ran into it today while setting up a test VM [1], and I've seen it reported
several times in support channels.
I suspect without evidence that apt is reverse sorting the list with the goal
of selecting xterm.
And of course, zutty requires specific graphical support or else it won't
launch.
I think someone who wants to use zutty will install it intentionally, so the
Provides: doesn't help zutty in particular, and removing it would help protect
other users from a new install with no working terminal emulator, at least
until the apt bug is sorted.
Thanks for your work,
sney
