Package: lintian Version: 1.23.46 The "known_obsolete_packages" is particularry short, although out archive is full of transitional pacakges. Q quick grep on Packages for "transitional" and checking for reverse depends yields atleast the following packages:
cdrecord gaim gnomemeeting gnuplot gs gs-aladdin gs-esp gs-gpl gs-common libglu1-xorg libglu1-xorg-dev libmime-perl libungif4-dev libxerces28 libxerces28-dev mailx mkisofs netcat netcdfg-dev pcmcia-cs python-pyopenssl r-base ssh-krb5 ssh(?) tetex-base tetex-bin tetex-extra x-dev xbase-clients xlibmesa-gl xlibmesa-gl-dev xlibmesa-glu xutils Alternatively lintian could use debtag "role::dummy" to construct the list. This would require maintainers to start using the tag more actively.. -- "rm -rf" only sounds scary if you don't have backups -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
