Package: blackened Severity: wishlist After asking on debian-devel and not receiving that much feedback, I decided to go ahead and file a wishlist bug against all console IRC clients, suggesting that they use the irc alternative. Reasoning: they provide the same functionality, which, according to the Policy, means the packages _can_ use that alternative. The only exception is epic, which _should_ use that alternative, since epic4 and ircII are using it, and they're all quite similar. I'll file minor bug report against epic.
