Package: extlinux
Version: 2:4.04+dfsg-9
Severity: normal
I removed memtest86+ and with it syslinux-themes-debian and syslinux-themes-
debian-squeeze
So far so good, no hard dependencies, just recommendations.
Anyway, today there was an extlinux update which failed to install correctly
with syslinux-themes-debian installed:
