Hi Rene,

but it would surely be needed if someone wanted to build winff from 
source on armel?


Even though that case is perhaps unlikely.
I can't see how the alternative is doing any harm.

Exactly. That#s why they should be used in package building for 
converting stuff.
One or the other is needed. Surely better to use the nogui if its 
available?


It is available. As indep builds are not done on armel that it's not 
available on armel does not really matter :)

This bugreport now caused the following "fix" in winff:

Build-Depends-Indep:
 faketime,

 libreoffice-writer-nogui | libreoffice-writer,

which I consider bad...



Hi Rene,
