Perhaps what I'm suggesting is an idea for the package people to consider. Instead of Required: being univalued, perhaps have a minimum useable version required and a preferred version. Default to the prefered but give the user via dselect and apt a means of pinning to the "minimum" instead.
That would let me selectively pull in a number of security tools I began using on a sid dist that I sorely miss in woody. I simply don't have time to repackage them all and be my own package maintainer. I doubt any of them has *real* dependencies such that they would not work perfectly well with the woody libs. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
