I argue that a minbase debootstrap is not a sane system. I guess you also expect init and init is not part of a minbase. We're not talking about removing "Priority: required" from e2fsprogs. The standard debootstrap will install e2fsprogs as the majority of systems will need e2fsprogs, yes. All I want is to make it opt-out. If you are worried about whether these tools are available on "normal" systems, come back when we talk about changing the Priority field. Helmut
