Package: libauthen-sasl-perl Version: 2.08-2 Severity: minor The policy says: `optional' (In a sense everything that isn't required is optional, but that's not what is meant here.) This is all the software that you might reasonably want to install if you didn't know what it was and don't have specialized requirements. This is a much larger system and includes the X Window System, a full TeX distribution, and many applications. Note that optional packages should not conflict with each other.
`extra' This contains all packages that conflict with others with required, important, standard or optional priorities, or are only likely to be useful if you already know what they are or have specialized requirements. libauthen-sasl-perl doesn't conflict with anything and is not only usefull for people who know that they have special requirements. For example it's used by otrs and libnet-xmpp-perl which are indeed not very special.
