Package: mountall
Version: 2.38
Severity: normal


Hi,

is there any specific reason why mountall has a dependency on
plymouth instead of having the package listed under Suggests/Recommends?

Neither from the package description nor the manpage I can see a
reason why it should depend on plymouth (being a graphical boot
animation and logger).

regards,
-mika-

Because plymouth is the only way that mountall communicates with the user.

That's not what plymouth is.  Plymouth is a boot-time I/O multiplexer which
happens to have some graphical frontends.
