Just you saying so doesn’t make it (more) true. Debian is a universal operating system… at least it tries to. Maybe one of these packages contains _one_ file you need to build some Teχ document, and your platform to do that is the smallest GPLhost.fr server, which has a mere 128 MiB RAM, and which would be perfectly fine doing just that. (Okay, bad example, as it’s also HDD-size-constrained, but there’s always nbd or other options to enlarge that, such as asking the owner.) So please, do not outright dismiss scenarios you personally cannot imagine. Thanks. bye, //mirabilos -- 15:41⎜<Lo-lan-do:#fusionforge> Somebody write a testsuite for helloworld :-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
