Package: taper Version: 6.2-1 The taper package recommends the ftape package, which is not available (at least on the cdrom distribution I have, or on the debian archives I searched.)
Since ftape is covered by the GPL, if it is recommended then it should be provided. Unless it is bug ridden --- in which case naive users should not be recommended to seek it out, and instead an explanatory warning should be given. Or if it integrated into Linux 2.x kernels, then perhaps the recommendation should be deleted, or perhaps the kernel package should provide ftape.
