If the MUST specify source dependencies, it's RC by definition. That was the whole point of the MUST/SHOULD/MAY split. If you want something else: either per-package exceptions, or some way of documenting how policy is planned to look in the future (at least, when there is such a plan), I've already suggested ways of dealing with this: README.Debian and BLOCKED/ONHOLD. But MUST already serves a purpose as is, please don't mess with it. Cheers, aj -- Anthony Towns <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://azure.humbug.org.au/~aj/> I don't speak for anyone save myself.
