Q: Why does debian do (or not do) what everyone else does with <foo>?
A: Debian politics mostly.  =)


It is, IMO, Debian's single weakness.  Politics should never interfere
with doing the right thing.  It doesn't always work that way in a project
with about a thousand people involved, however.  Especially since many of
us are rather opinionated and the more opinionated among us are generally
described as arrogant assholes, convinced that we're right and that the
others are all on crack or something.  (That means me too, of course.  I
don't know more than half a dozen developers more free than myself with
their opinions..)
