--- Begin Message ---Package: gbrowse Version: 2.56+dfsg-3 User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: nonessentiale2fsprogs Dear maintainer, We want to make removing e2fsprogs from installations possible. For standard installations this is not useful, but embedded applications and chroots benefit from such an option. For getting there all packages that use e2fsprogs must be identified and gain a dependency on it as e2fsprogs currently is essential. gbrowse was identified as potentially needing such a dependency, because it mentions tool names from e2fsprogs in the following files: /usr/bin/gbrowse_grow_cloud_vol contains resize2fs. According to file it is a Perl script text executable /usr/share/perl5/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/DataSource.pm contains e2label. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text /usr/share/perl5/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/Render.pm contains e2label. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text /usr/share/perl5/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/Render/Slave/AWS_Balancer.pm contains e2fsck and resize2fs. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text /usr/share/perl5/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/RenderPanels.pm contains e2label. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text /usr/share/perl5/Bio/Graphics/Browser2/TrackDumper.pm contains e2label. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text /usr/share/perl5/Legacy/Graphics/Browser.pm contains e2label. According to file it is a Perl5 module source, ASCII text Please investigate whether these cases are actually uses of a tool from e2fsprogs. Care has been taken to shrink the number of candidates as much as possible, but a few false positives will remain. After doing so, do one of the following: * Add e2fsprogs to Depends. * Add e2fsprogs to Recommends. * Close this bug explaining why e2fsprogs is not used by this package. Once e2fsprogs drops the "Essential: yes" flag, this bug will be upgraded to RC severity. Please note that lintian will warn about such a dependency before lintian 2.5.56. Thanks for your help Helmut

Your analysis looks sound to me. I am closing the bug accordingly. Helmut
