Hi folks,
would it be possible to support combined dependencies,
e.g. if package A and B are installed, then package C(A)
has to be installed, too?
That might be helpful for dkms packages, for example.
A would be the kernel, B the dkms package, and C

Hello,
Just a heads-up about Architecture: linux-any. The dd-list below is
a (non-exhaustive!) list of packages that kfreebsd/hurd maintainers
believe are candidates for using it in their debian/control file,
because they are probably not to be ported to non-Linux systems, due to

So you think Debian should rename the package to confuse people
even more?
Or is there some other reason you mailed this to the Debian list?
I suggest you take it up with the people
I noticed that some time ago that a few packages that used to FTBFS with
