I thought about this. It's definitely not "unusual" to want to only build it. So Suggest it already :-) An quick glance at various '-source$' packages show some Suggest utils/libs; at least one Recommends them, and some leave them out altogether. I don't feel like looking but it would be interesting to know if the resulting -modules package Depends on them and see if that influenced whether the maintainer Suggested the utils. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
