Sounds good. I won't object to such a paragraph, although I'd think it's not really necessary (since arch:all only source packages don't really need the distinction between build-depends and build-depends-indep anyway. See my other post on the subject.) -- Wouter Verhelst Debian GNU/Linux -- http://www.debian.org Nederlandstalige Linux-documentatie -- http://nl.linux.org "An expert can usually spot the difference between a fake charge and a full one, but there are plenty of dead experts." -- National Geographic Channel, in a documentary about large African beasts.
