I know what you're talking about. > In fact, from my POV the right would be to drop rootskel-gtk from > pkg-lists and have it included when cdebconf-gtk-udeb is included. And that's EXACTLY what happens. *Because* of the way the pkg-lists are configured and *because* rootskel-gtk is *only* useful if included in an initrd it is a perfectly OK solution to simply rely on pkg-lists and drop the dependency. The best alternative is to try to convince the s390 buildd admin to allow rootskel-gtk to build for s390 (good luck with that). Limiting the arches for cdebconf-gtk would be a bad solution as it goes against general packaging conventions: we don't limit packages to arches unless there's a technical reason to do so, not just because it's not used. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
