Package: debian-policy Severity: wishlist 2.2.1 says "the packages in main
must not require or recommend a package outside of main for compilation or execution (thus, the package must not declare a "Pre-Depends", "Depends", "Recommends", "Build-Depends", or "Build-Depends-Indep" relationship on a non- main package)," In practice there is a consensus that this also means "packages must not access external network servers" which conforms to the spirit but not to the letter of this section. Note that there may be other requirements which are not codified, as mentioning only things that are packaged is not enough, it should say something like "must not use any stuff except for packages in main". -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
