nbd also is needed to support NBD swap. the intention of the ltsp-server-standalone package is to have *all* functionality available. > Yes, I do realise that I could just install ltsp-server plus a dhcp > server but I do actually like the comfort of only one package, and I > don't see why both must be depencies. users using NBD root wouldn't strictly need nfs-kernel-server at all, i want to have a single package to install to ensure that the defaults for Debian's ltsp to work. i'd rather err on the side of ltsp-server-standalone pulling in a little bit too much for non-default scenarios than the other way around. as you say, you can always install ltsp-server and whatever dependencies you want. live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
