Is it a tool that is really essential, and should thus be in the "util-linux" package, which is installed on each and every Debian installation? I've been avoiding adding new stuff to "util-linux" to avoid bloating it even more. Can it land in util-linux-extra, which is at least only pseudo-Essential? Or some other package, like bsdutils or bsdextrautils (not the best names)? Regarding your merge request: this seems to miss installing man pages into the appropriate packages. Chris
