Hi,
[discussion on how a broken depends in procps does not really
kill the system]
Maybe the correct wuestion is if procps needs t be essential?
Does anyone remember the reason why? I did not think that procps
binaries are essential -- required maybe (why even that?) but
essential?
I think that the definition of essential packages should be
packages which, if they are broken, leave the system in a state that
can't be repaired (a missing or broken libc or ld.so comes in that
category, as does dpkg).
What would break if procps dies?
