2. The provider for that is the libjpeg package.
3. The libjpeg package is obsoleted by libjpeg-turbo.
4. But, libjpeg-turbo doesn't provide "libjpeg", which is the
requirement we are doing all this for ... so ignore the obsolete and

If you only want them to be able to choose between #1 and #2 (or #1 and

8. If you want to remove part of a metapackage, you have to remove the

It wasn't bugfixes, it was a new upstream release, and yes size does
matter. All mirrors, public and p
Thankfully all the giant flamewars and new policies didn't make anyone
think twice about the users, as we already have 140 updates with a
combined size of _over_ 750MB on x86_64, biggest 5 are:

Jim, is it possible you were running with "LANG=C"?
If so I'm 99% sure I've found the bug:
