Disclaimer: I am not talking about apt-file. <QA hat on> I sure hope no DDs have such sloppy standards for their work that they would upload such crap to unstable knowlingly. Note that transitory dependency problems are not what we are talking about. </QA hat on> If you are going to violate a _should_ forever, you better be able to provide a full, acceptable technical explanation for your reasons. And for the sake of team work, that also means tagging a bug about the issue as wontfix, and adding the explanation to the bug logs. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
