Package: picosat
Version: 936-1
Severity: wishlist

It would be great if the library were built with trace support
(in experimental), as this allows better use of picosat for
solving dependency problems in apt, which is an interesting
thing to do. The overhead of building with trace support
enabled seems minimal in my test cases.

Compare the following output:

-- Without trace:
j...@jak-thinkpad:~$ LD_PRELOAD="" apt-get -t experimental -s install 
libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a:amd64
E:   Cannot install:  libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a (1:2.22.0-1)

-- With trace:
j...@jak-thinkpad:~$ apt-get -t experimental -s install libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a:amd64
E: Unsolvable:
  libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a:amd64 Depends on libatkmm-1.6-1 [ amd64 ] < none > ( none ) 
(>= 2.22.1)
