It's already a bug if packages don't. :) See policy section 5.4 for clarification of this - if (as a package maintainer) you aren't also checking the $EDITOR and $PAGER environment variables, and can't easily do so, then you should use /usr/bin/sensible-editor and /usr/bin/sensible-pager instead. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
