Pseudo-essential packages are going to be a problem though. What if a (hypothetical, of course!) package maintainer of an essential package suddenly decides they need to depend on, oh I know, say, ucf? Of course, this situation is purely hypothetical, and ucf would never suddenly become pseudo- essential. (Who *is* the authority telling people off for making other packages pseudo-essential, anyway? I’ve seen it thrice at least already; luckily it was reverted for the instance when someone pulled in the (full) perl package.) bye, //mirabilos -- <dileks> ch: good, you corrected yourself. ppl tend to tweet such news immediately, sth. like "grml devs seem to be buyable" <ch> dileks: we _are_. if you throw enough money in our direction, things will happen <mika> everyone is buyable, it's just a matter of price <mrud> and now comes [mira] and uses this as a signature ;0 -- they asked for it… -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
