Package: debian-policy
Severity: wishlist
I've proposed downgrading the following packages to optional:
tetex-lib, tetex-base, tetex-bin, emacs20, emacs20-el, emacsen-common
The discussion (which I've made available in mbox format at
http://master.debian.org/~rcw/emacs-tex-downgrading) has the following
opinions:
* One question and what appears to be an informal objection
* Tangent discussions about what else should be standard (X, compiler
subsystem)
* One second
* Eleven other messages in favor
There have been no formal objections, I hope that's enough concensus to
move forward.
If so, policy should be patched in a manner similar to the following:
--- policy.sgml Sat Jan 1 16:42:08 2000
+++ policy.sgml Sat Jan 1 16:43:48 2000
@@ -556,11 +556,7 @@
These packages provide a reasonably small but not too
limited character-mode system. This is what will
install by default if the user doesn't select anything
- else. It doesn't include many large applications, but
- it does include Emacs (this is more of a piece of
- infrastructure than an application) and a reasonable
- subset of TeX and LaTeX (if this is possible without
- X).</p>
+ else. It doesn't include many large applications.</p>

Once this proposal reaches the stage where policy is ready to be changed,
please reassign the bug to include ftp.debian.org.
Thanks!
