 That propably happened to me when I remove the handling for the ancient
irssi-text package. Though, I have to admit, the AUTHORITATIVE LIST OF
VIRTUAL PACKAGE NAMES doesn't contain any irc virtual package - even
though I see it in talksoup.app, scrollz, sirc, ircii, xchat and epic4.

 Were there ever discussions about wether to make this an official
virtual package, what good is it, I don't see any Depends on irc
anywhere? I don't like adding something that has little benefit and is
not really backed up by policy.

 Thanks,
Rhonda
