[extremly essential vs. essential]
I fully agree to what James said. So I think it would be good to check out
all "Essential" packages in which category they fall.
Note, that from the package system's view, there shouldn't be a difference
between these two categories--it's the maintainers who need to know which
one a package is--in order to set up Depends or Pre-Depends.
There was a suggestion on debian-devel about creating and maintaining a
list of essential packages that explains the reasons why a specific
package is marked essential. This list should also contain information
about whether a package is `extremly essential' or just `essential.'
What do you think?
Thanks,
Chris
