Package: lintian Version: 2.5.55 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: rebootstrap
[email protected] has discussed the removal of e2fsprogs from essential. The next step in doing so is allowing dependencies on e2fsprogs. Then we can MBF the remaining packages to add those dependencies. Thus lintian needs to stop complain about such dependencies. The attached patch implements that. Please consider applying it. Helmut
