** Description changed: Please remove reform-tools from Ubuntu and add it to the sync blocklist. Its new binary packages, reform-desktop-minimal and reform-desktop-full, are not installable on Ubuntu. The packages are clearly intended for a Debian derivative, not an Ubuntu derivative. There may be useful parts of reform-tools for Ubuntu, but this would need someone to do the work to separate things better. This removal would be similar to how debian-edu, bfh-metapackages, and progress-linux-metapackages are also on the sync blocklist. Other Info ========== There are several other reform-* source packages that may not be useful for Ubuntu but their binary packages are installable and probably work as expected. Therefore, I don't see a need to remove them at this time. + + $ reverse-depends src:reform-tools + $ reverse-depends -b src:reform-tools + No reverse dependencies found
