The quote above dropped the part where I also suggest getting dash to be essential first. > I doubt that dash will be included as essential before etch and then > this will need to wait until it releases. Do you think we can push it > before etch? The moment dash hits essential status in sid, you can already change the initscripts. You will need a versioned depends on dash, which is much more palatable than versioned pre-depends. For etch+1 you are already allowed to drop the dependency completely. Ask the dash maintainer if he would be willing to make it essential for Etch, that's the real issue... -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
