--- Begin Message ---Package: cowsay Version: 3.03+dfsg1-16 Severity: wishlist In 3.03+dfsg1-13 the cowsay-off package was created in response to #769194. I used one of those cows in a login script and on upgrade had an error about a nonexisting cow. It took me longer than it otherwise would have to figure out what was going on because the changelog entry: * Add cowsay-off package (closes: #769194) Isn't clear. Since this is carving out a feature that's been in upstream forever doesn't this at least warrant some mention in NEWS, or at the very least: * Cows deemed offensive have been split off into a separate cowsay-off package. Affected cows are: head-in, mutilated, sodomized-sheep (closes: #769194) Which would make this easier to find for people who searched through the changelog for the missing file. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (700, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages cowsay depends on: ii libtext-charwidth-perl 0.04-7+b4 ii perl 5.22.2-5 Versions of packages cowsay recommends: ii cowsay-off 3.03+dfsg1-16 Versions of packages cowsay suggests: pn filters <none> -- no debconf information
