Package: udisks Version: 1.0.1+git20100614-1+b1 Severity: wishlist udisks recommends several packages: Recommends: policykit-1, hdparm, dosfstools, mtools, ntfs-3g, ntfsprogs
However, nothing in the package description explains why these recommendations exist and what udisks does with them. policykit-1 seems fairly obvious (though not why it doesn't qualify as a Depends) but hdparm, mtools, and the various filesystem-specific bits don't have any indication of what they might get used for, and what functionality they enable for programs that depend on udisks. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages udisks depends on: ii dbus 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libatasmart4 0.17+git20100219-2 ATA S.M.A.R.T. reading and parsing ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.48-3 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgudev-1.0-0 161-1 GObject-based wrapper library for ii libparted0debian1 2.3-2 The GNU Parted disk partitioning s ii libpolkit-backend-1-0 0.96-2 PolicyKit backend API ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.96-2 PolicyKit Authorization API ii libsgutils2-2 1.29-1 utilities for devices using the SC ii libudev0 161-1 libudev shared library ii udev 161-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages udisks recommends: ii dosfstools 3.0.9-1 utilities for making and checking pn hdparm <none> (no description available) ii mtools 4.0.12-1 Tools for manipulating MSDOS files pn ntfs-3g <none> (no description available) pn ntfsprogs <none> (no description available) ii policykit-1 0.96-2 framework for managing administrat Versions of packages udisks suggests: pn cryptsetup <none> (no description available) pn mdadm <none> (no description available) pn reiserfsprogs <none> (no description available) pn xfsprogs <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
