Hi, You may have the potato branch in your CVS working directory, the Depends like you show is more similar (but not identical to) potato boot-floppies.
I'm happy to just end the discussion here. Though I'd rather we agree on the status of boot-floppies dependancies. We can agree to disagree, I guess, it is wierd though. > > hmm, sure looks like it is there to me. > > > > revs 1.75-1.77 (debian versions 3.0.10-3.0.14) > > > > >From boot-floppies control in cvs (yesterday) > This looks more like revision 1.50 > Depends: dpkg-dev, gcc, glibc-pic, slang1-pic, libnewt-dev, libpopt-dev, > zlib1g-dev, recode, make, gettext, m4, debiandoc-sgml, > libi18n-langtags-perl, man-db, libpaperg, tetex-bin, tetex-extra, perl5, > libwww-perl, pointerize, libgd-dev, bison, ash, dpkg-awk, flex, file, > debhelper, gawk, console-data > Suggests: python-xml I feel like a broken record. oink:/home/dwhedon# apt-cache show boot-floppies Package: boot-floppies Priority: extra Section: devel Installed-Size: 3032 Maintainer: Debian Install System Team <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: all Version: 3.0.14 Depends: build-essential, glibc-pic, slang1-pic, libnewt-dev, libnewt-pic, libpopt-dev, zlib1g-dev, recode, gettext, m4, debiandoc-sgml, libi18n-langtags-perl, man-db, libpaperg, tetex-extra, perl5, libwww-perl, pointerize, libgd-dev, libbogl-dev (>= 0.1.6-1), bison, ash, dpkg-awk, flex, file, debhelper, gawk, python-dev, python-xml, busybox, bf-utf-source, zlib-bin, dosfstools, debootstrap Recommends: sudo Filename: pool/main/b/boot-floppies/boot-floppies_3.0.14_all.deb Size: 3047736 MD5sum: 1bb05d5868207c1ae20a4a0295b8030b Description: Scripts to create the Debian installation system This package is for developers wishing to build the Debian installation system on their own.
