I am at a lenny box and cannot properly check now. If dependencies did not change too much from lenny to squeeze, I think the final recommends that is triggering the pull is that libhunspell-1.2-0 recommends (myspell-en | myspell dictionary) and that libaspell15 recomends (aspell-en|aspell dictionary). What makes it loaded in lenny is a dependency chain like libnotify1 -> notification-daemon -> libsexy2 -> libenchant1c2a -> (libaspell15,libhunspell-1.2-0) I did not go above libnotify1 and did not look for recommends, so may be other branches. Will try next week in a real sid box. > This is the complete set of packages being installed in that first run > (I have no idea why so many are pulled in by debian-edu-install for > Squeeze): Seems debian-edu-config dependencies/recommends what is pulling most.

As a matter of fact, that was already a no-op before lenny. Just mentioned it because I do not know how debian-edu works, and wanted to discard that ancient stuff fiddling around. -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
