Package: w3m Version: 0.5.2-2.1 Justification: Policy 7.2 Severity: serious
Given the package description for migemo installing it as a Recommends and thus by default for all users of w3g is IMO not correct. Recommends should only be used (see policy 7.2) for packages that are "found together in all but unusual installation". It is especially problematic because of the very heavy dependencies migemo has: it pulls in emacs and ruby. Both of those are completely irrelevant for w3m's base functionality and I would think that migemo is only relevant for Japanese users. So IMO it completely fails the requirements for a status as Recommends. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages w3m depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgc1c2 1:6.8-1.2 conservative garbage collector for ii libgpm2 1.20.4-3.3 General Purpose Mouse - shared lib ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8k-8 SSL shared libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages w3m recommends: ii ca-certificates 20090814 Common CA certificates Versions of packages w3m suggests: ii man-db 2.5.7-1 on-line manual pager ii menu 2.1.43 generates programs menu for all me pn migemo <none> (no description available) ii mime-support 3.48-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap pn w3m-el <none> (no description available) pn w3m-img <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
