While on it, would it be worth noting the attempt we had to solve the issue ( like punching dev in the face until they understand ) ? Also, I guess we can add links to similar pages, if any, on other distribution would help. I found https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries and i know there is a page for debian to help use find potential bundled libraries, but i cannot find it. -- Michael Scherer
