Yes it's not safe, I know. I tried to understand whenever a versioned Recommends does the trick (there's already a versioned recommends in initramfs-tools against busybox), and, later, what does a versioned recommends _does_, or a Breaks is needed instead. So from a trivial change in one package it turned into a bit less trivial question about the package relationship. /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
