Package: rsync Version: 2.6.6-1 Severity: wishlist Hi, in Sarge rsync suggests ssh, which is normal as that package included both the SSH server and client. In Etch this changed. Suggesting ssh is fine, but I think it could be more clear to suggest both openssh-server and openssh-client. Not because it's evil to suggest a metapackage, but because each package provide something distinct for rsync. For example, if rsync would be split in rsync-server and rsync-client, each one would suggest its associated openssh component. But rsync containing both doesn't change the fact that the contribution of openssh-client to "rsync-client" is independent from the contribution of openssh-server to "rsync-server". Note that I notice that rsync's package description is not clear about it containing both the client and the daemon, which would clarify the intention of splitting the dependencies.
I won't blame you for considering this of pedantic severity, but wishlist is the lowest. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages rsync depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters rsync recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
