Hi Stefano, Jörg, and everybody. In the end, the contrib category is free software, so why not simply downgrade it as a priority level, lower than "extra"? This would solve the problem for our puzzled users as well as for the developpers packaging software that is partially dependant on things not available in the main archive, and the consistency of the Debian operating system would be: - guaranteed for packages of priority optional or higher, - possibly conflicutal for extra packages, - defective by missing dependancies for contrib packages.
