Package: debfoster Version: 2.6-2 Hello!
Sorry, I know I'm replying to an old mail, but I discovered this bug
only recently and in the latest unstable version (thus updating the
BTS with the pseudo-header).

Why this? The two bugs are IMHO completely different, here's why.
- 325920 deals with the action associated with the 'q' and 'x' keys,
i.e. from the debfoster manual page:
'q' Exit without removing packages. All changes will be lost.
'x' Save changes to debfoster database, remove unwanted packages,
and exit without asking further questions.
As you can see, we're not speaking about how the action is executed.
- 348689, on the contrary, is specific to the execution of the
'x'-associated action, i.e. the fact that hitting 'x' after a 'p'
prunes only the main package and not its dependencies, which is the
expected result as from the debfoster manual page:
'p' Prune the package. This tells debfoster to also delete all
packages that are only installed because this package depends on
them. A list of such packages, if any, is shown above the
prompt.
So, I'm going to unmerge the two bugs in a week since now if no other
explanations will be given.
BTW, I also think that the forward as at [1] was correct (the forward
tag was removed later on).
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
