Hi, trying to get in contact with Steve McIntyre about Debian bug #800130, libjte1:
A few weeks ago i made packages of xorriso-1.4.0 et.al. which are now in Debian testing, thanks to Dominique Dumont. QA complains about libisofs6 having Priority "optional" but depending on libjte1 with Priority "extra": https://qa.debian.org/debcheck.php?dist=unstable&package=libisofs I wrote to Steve in septemnber and a few days later filed the bug. A new release of libisofs is planned to happen before the end of the year. My favorite solution would be to set libjte1 to "optional", too. I cannot see hard reasons in the policy description which would prevent this. libjte1 is for an exotic use case. But libisofs6 has a popcon rank around 1000. Less favorable would be to remove the dependency on libjte1 and to tell all Jigdo producers to use GNU xorriso or to modify the Debian source packages of libisofs, libisoburn, and xorriso. Quite unfavorable would be to set libisofs, libisoburn, and xorriso to "extra". libisofs is a dependency of xfburn which has priority "optional". Have a nice day :) Thomas
