Sure, but there's a difference between requiring it and enforcing it. Not that I think that's bad, but at least we should speak out that side-effect. > I don't like option #3 because it's something we'll be stuck with forever > and requires packagers update both debian/rules and debian/control to > configure things properly. Ok, that puts #3 below #5. > One of the reasons why I'm personally fond of > #4 is that it reduces our long-term complexity. We could always upgrade #1 and #2 to #4. However, I don't think I'd like to introduce a new way to mass-fail packages (if someone provides numbers that this are only few packages, things might be different, but I don't think that's already the case - if in a few years time that's fixed, great.).
