Hi, a next round of removal suggestions. I'm fairly certain that the removal suggestion on kdebase will not be taken (and I wouldn't put it in a file if I could directly enter hints), and also the hint on libdvdnav is doubtable. Also, please note, that, as always, my removal suggestions are rather aggressive.
Something about the format: During the time, I became tired of writing "no dependencies". There is - starting with pbbuttonsd - just a second line with more removal suggestions (then there are binary dependencies), or not (in which case there are none). If this is ok, I tend to keep this in future. Cheers, Andi # suggestions from 2004-06-18 # Package: crash (optional; Josh Huber) remove crash/3.3-1.2 # 249954 [ ] crash: FTBFS [i386] missing ./crash # maintainer said mid of May to fix it, no further reaction to it. # no dependencies remove crash/3.3-1.2 # Package: gaim (optional;
