Package: hwtools
Version: 0.8-6.1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hi there,
nowadays, sysutils is just a dummy package depending on all the single
packages I split out from it (memtester, procinfo, tofrodos). As this
dummy package is already part of stable, I think now is the time to
start thinking about finally removing sysutils from the archives.
Please change the Suggests to the appropriate package. I guess memtester
is the part you need, the attached patch will take care of this.
Cheers,
Flo - sysutils maintainer
