That seems like a fair enough set of improvements (if I'm reading the diff right - it's late, so I haven't bothered to apply them to see where the text moves to). I don't see how it closes #87510, though. #87510 is a request for build-dependencies to be made mandatory: the whole should vs. may thing was a digression somewhere. When you said you'd be closing #87510, I assumed you meant that you were making build-dependencies a must, which I do think is still (unfortunately) premature. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
