I can add one; it's not a lot of overhead given that lintian already has
a
framework for checking for bad dependencies. It's basically just another
branch in an if statement.
What's the precise check? Any package depending on python-minimal should
receive an error (or a warning?)
Based on Vorlon's message:
If (package depends on python-minimal) and (package is not essential) then
ERROR.
It's pretty definitely a bug, so AIUI should be marked as an error.
with roughly the text of Steve's previous message?
Short message: "Non-essential package depends on python-minimal."
Long Message: Something along the lines of Steve's meassage.
Uh... sure :)
