--- Begin Message ---Package: cfv Version: 1.18-2 Severity: normal Hi, The package cfv recommends bittorrent which I feel is unwaranted: Debian Policy Manual Chapter 7 - Declaring relationships between packages | Recommends | This declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency. | | The Recommends field should list packages that would be found | together with this one in all but unusual installations. | | Suggests | This is used to declare that one package may be more useful with | one or more others. Using this field tells the packaging system | and the user that the listed packages are related to this one and | can perhaps enhance its usefulness, but that installing this one | without them is perfectly reasonable. | | Enhances | This field is similar to Suggests but works in the opposite | direction. It is used to declare that a package can enhance the | functionality of another package. Cfv is completly functional in all aspects without a bittorrent client and a strong dependency is not given imho. In fact I even feel a Suggests would be wrong since such a client does in no way alter the cfv functionality. I think this would be better expressed as Enhances. Having cfv installed, thus being able to create new torrent files for seeding with a BT client, enhances the BT client. MfG Goswin PS: mldonkey also knows about BT and there might be more clients in Debian. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-frosties-2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages cfv depends on: ii python2.3 2.3.5-3 An interactive high-level object-o -- no debconf information
