I suggested one new package, not two, unless I'm totally wrong. With my suggestion installing the openvpn package installs everything it already installs nowadays (assuming the dependency on openvpn-core). Any depends, recommends, suggests of other packages on the openvpn package are therefore unchanged. In a second step those packages that only need the binary (like network- manager-openvpn) could then relax their openvpn dependency to an openvpn-core dependency. (btw: this two-step transition happened with mysql-server(- core)-5.1, that's why I mentioned it) Eckhart -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
