Package: util-linux Version: 2.16.2-0 Severity: wishlist It's been over 12 years already since cfdisk is built against libslang. It can be built either againt libncurses or libslang. The interface it shows is basically the same.
Reasoning: o libslang2 can be made optional, since the only reason why it is currently marked as "required" is due to the fact that it is used by util-linux package. On all my systems for example, cfdisk (util-linux) the only user of libslang. o to my taste anyway, ncurses interface looks more usual, since it uses the same interface as many other screen-based programs uses (editors, file browsers and even dpkg frontends like dialog). I even used to rebuild util-linux packages a while ago to replace slang with ncurses. This is just a (small) wishlist. People has their own preferences for such things, mine is with ncurses, but sure thing others may disagree.
