IMHO, this is not enough, according to the policy: "Every package must specify the dependency information about other packages that are required for the first to work correctly." AFAICT, svn-upgrade does not work properly, more than that, it does not work at all. I haven't seen any place in the policy where it says "it is acceptable for 1/3 of the packages not to work" or something simillar The fact that svn-upgrade works for most people is just lucky. Is not any merit of svn-buildpackage that svn-upgrade works. And since debhelper is not yet build-essential, the dependency should be declared, AFAICT. > Oh, I seem to have misunderstood the reason for this bug report, due to the > mention of pbuilder (and also because of the claim that most people will > have file installed on their systems because of debhelper, which doesn't > sound at all correct...). Reopening; I agree that it doesn't sound RC. If you think that Depends is too much, then Recommends should be ok, right? - -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFUeH9Y8Chqv3NRNoRAtEjAKCwR2HcHZQMrPfoOrVcNGTnWUUAdgCfWA6E DehPjafvQArjHcG6h9HS0yA= =rHGy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
