Package: floppyd
Version: 3.9.10.ds1-3
Severity: important


Whole purpose of existense of floppyd as separate package is
ability to install it on the systems where there are no local users
(i.e. diskless X-terminals).

So floppyd shouldn't depend on mtools. Because floppyd ought to be
installed where no user tools (such as mtools) should exist.

Other way around is also true. There can be interactive systems (i.e.
isolated non-networked PC) where mtools are usable but floppyd is not
needed.

floppyd can suggest or recommend mtools, because to make floppyd usable
mtools should exist somewhere on the same LAN.
