Please inform debian-devel of this change as well so the impact can be discussed more widely. I know that I for one have chroots where sysvinit-utils is installed as a transitively essential package, and procps is not. I don't know if pidof is actually going to be a problem for anyone in this regard, but I don't know that it *won't* be - so we should get some more eyeballs on this change. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
