Helmut Grohne dixit:

>be dropping those dependencies. If you do that in a profile, the
>contents of the mksh package vary with the profile. However, if you

The contents vary anyway. If a libc is not available (ok, this does
not happen with normal Debian Build-Depends) or produces a faulty
executable, it’s skipped. (And yes, this is by design.)

>split mksh-static to a separate package, you only change the package

mksh-static is just a symlink to the “best” one, but I ship all ones.

>point, I'm aiming for three categories: Low hanging fruit, tooling bugs
>and packages must be cross buildable for some reason. The bug at hand

OK, works for me.

>That may be correct, but I still fail to see why I would want a compact

Yes, which is why I’m not going there, it’s off-topic, I have reasons
and not the nerve to explain to someone who fails to see it. There are
other factors in play as well.

>I still wonder what do do about the bug now. We've figured that no,

Nothing.

>So how bad would it be to close this bug with the wontfix tag?

Or leave it open with it. I don’t care.
