Hi there,

bug #438163 asked you to make tftpd-hpa depend on inet-superserver.
But it's also entirely possible to run tftpd-hpa on its own without
inetd, even if it's a less-common configuration.  So it should be
possible to install tftpd-hpa on a system without dragging in
inet-superserver.

I think the right way to fix this is to move inet-superserver to
Recommends: rather than Depends:.  Since apt is now installing
recommended packages by default, the standard installation will be
unaffected, but admins who prefer to run tftpd as its own daemon can
do so without overhead.

As a concrete example, I prefer to run tftpd-hpa under runit
supervision with the new -L flag introduced in 0.48-1 (thanks!).  You
can see a runit--style servicedir for tftpd-hpa here:

Thanks for maintaining tftpd-hpa in debian,
