Package: debian-policy Severity: important Hi,
the following sentence in 2.5 leave much room for maneuver, therefor i would like to see a clarification how it should be interpreted: | Important programs, including those which one would expect to find on | any Unix-like system. If the expectation is that an experienced Unix | person who found it missing would say "What on earth is going on, where | is foo?", it must be an important package. Background here is, that i moved the package "ed" to optional years ago, and now have bug #776413 open, which disagrees on that move. I would like to keep "ed" in optional, but also see the arguments the submitter gave here.
