Haha, fair enough. I continue to believe that gnome-rdp should have a different sort of dependency on rdesktop though. I'd suggest a 'recommends' or at least a 'suggests'. The current "alternative dependency" is confusing: openssh-client | xtightvncviewer | rdesktop On a philosophical level I'd argue that an "alternative dependency" should only be used when all alternatives deliver the same kind of functionality, e.g. in the case of libgnash0: gstreamer0.10-alsa | gstreamer0.10-audiosink I haven't got the Debian Policy committed to memory though so I don't know if there are any rules regarding this. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://therning.org/magnus "Sendmail" and "make" are two well known programs that are pretty widely regarded as being debugged into existence. That's why their command languages are so poorly thought out and difficult to learn. It's not just you -- everyone finds them troublesome. -- Peter van der Linden, Expert C Programming, p. 220
