Hi.
The situation that you are complaining about is that vrms takes into
account the section of the packages.
In general, if the section of a package doesn't match what its copyright
says, then the package has a bug and it should be fixed ASAP.
If the section of a package in Ubuntu matches the policy of what Ubuntu
considers free and non-free (i.e., restricted or multiverse), then vrms
will work perfectly according to what the users of Ubuntu expect.
BTW, despite being a Debian Maintainer, I use Ubuntu exclusively on a
laptop of mine that I use daily---and I'm testing it with karmic.
There is, in my view, no need to keep patches to vrms confined in
Ubuntu.
I think that I will close this bug with a new upload of vrms (which I
hope is considered by inclusion in time for karmic's release).
Regards, Rogério Brito.
