Hi Martin, No, there is no rule saying that a package cannot include anything that's unnecessary for sid and/or would benefit downstream distributions. There's nothing that compels maintainers to do so either; it's entirely up to the maintainer. Personally, for my own packages I do my best to eliminate/minimize the diff in my packages for stable backports and Ubuntu/downstream distros in general, even at the cost of introducing extra complexity to that package. Again, it's up to you as maintainer to decide whether you would like to deal with this extra workload, or push it to downstream maintainers/backporters. Regards, Vincent
