A preliminary repository is available via: git clone http://neualius.turmzimmer.net/~fw/debfoster.git I've ported some of Debian's changes "upstream" and updated the autotools framework. I also plan to incorporate a few patches from the BTS (some of them seem quite reasonable). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Package: debfoster Severity: wishlist Hi, the latest debfoster says it is deprecated, and its functionality is present in aptitude. Unfortunately, there are some things that aptitude cannot do at the moment. I have some packages like strace, tcpdump and other debugging/tracing tools marked in debfoster as "uninstall", which causes debfoster to uninstall a package as soon as it is found. This functionality is not in aptitude since a manually installed package stays installed, and there is no "uninstall on sight" functionality in aptitude.
