Yes. It's a violation of Debian policy 2.5 for packages to depend on packages of lower priority than themselves. So, now that makedev has been reduced to priority extra, any packages that depend on it that are of higher priority are buggy and should be updated. I'll poke the Debian policy folks since 10.6 clearly deserves an update. Bdale -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
