When I removed the astronomy tasks from Debian Science, I added two transitional packages directly to debian/control.stub: science astronomy and science-astronomy-dev, to provide a smooth transition between the old tasks and Debian Astro. I think, now Debian Astro should just (manually) mentioned somewhere on the Debian Science Web page and linked to the home page. Meta-tasks that pull other Pure Blends completely is IMO a bit overkill. But we should make a common decision here together with the other Blends that somehow relate to Science: DebianMed, DebiChem, etc. > I have also *not* included yorick-mira into any Debian Astro which you > definitely should if you think it should be part of some metapackage. You (Thibaut) could put yorick-mira into the "datareduction" task of Debian Astro. Yorick itself (yorick-full) is already listed under "frameworks": https://blends.debian.org/astro/tasks/ We also have yorick-cubeview ad yorick-spydr in viewers, and yorick-yao in simulation. Please adjust these as well if you like. https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-astro/packages/debian-astro.git/ Best Ole
