The whole reason the package was reintroduced quickly after Julian dropped it was that tools like debootstrap were exploding, and even if he was expressing hope for the better in the commit message I have my serious doubts that has changed and as he said we aren't exactly able to fix the world… hands (more than) full with what we have now already. If you can come with prove that debootstrap (and probably other tools) can deal with virtual packages nowadays, we will be happy to oblige – and I think I know a couple other people who would be happy, too.

We have no plans to drop this package for the foreseeable future. Doing so breaks various bootstrapping tools and causes severe headaches we don't have the capacity to deal with. -- debian developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev ubuntu core developer i speak de, en signature.asc Description: PGP signature
