This package is part of the official KDE base module. This is not very descriptive and did not lead me to the solution=20 that I need this packet. Especially it repeats the Short description in the long description. I would suggest somthing like Description: KDE I/O Slaves This packet contains various internal helper tools for many KDE programms, like e.g. konqueror. If you need to access e.g. zip-files transparently or view previews, you have to install this paket. . This package is part of the official KDE base module. . KDE is an advanced desktop environment. Possibly even the Short description should be reformulated to give a novice an idea.=20 I mark this as a bug, because policy 3.4 says: The description should describe the package (the program) to a user (system administrator) who has never met it before so that they have enough information to decide whether they want to install it. This description should not just be copied verbatim from the program's documentation. And as a user/system administrator I might know what KDE is (though it=20 won't hurt to explain that as well, suppose I just learned Gnome coming from e.g. another common OS and now start to explore my system), but not even having a full sentence specific to the package, and "KDE I/O Slaves" which contains two acronyms and one technical term is not "descriptive" to someone who has never met it before (and I have used KDE 2.x, so I even heard about I/O Slaves, just I did not know that I needed them in konquerer as I could see the images just fine when clicking on them).=20 -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: alpha Kernel: Linux sixtyfor 2.4.21-pre1 #1 Don Okt 2 18:27:25 CEST 2003 alpha Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Versions of packages kdebase-kio-plugins depends on: ii kdelibs4 4:3.1.4-3 KDE core libraries ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.8-1 The Gnome 2 canvas widget - ru= ntim ii libc6.1 2.3.2.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared librarie= s an ii libfam0c102 2.6.10-6 client library to control the = FAM=20 ii libgcc1 1:3.3.2-4 GCC support library ii libjpeg62 6b-5 The Independent JPEG Group's J= PEG=20 ii libldap2 2.1.23-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpcre3 4.3-3 Philip Hazel's Perl 5 Compatib= le R ii libpng12-0 1.2.5.0-4 PNG library - runtime ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.2.1-6 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runti= me v ii libsmbclient 3.0.1-2 shared library that allows app= lica ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.2-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libxrender1 0.8.3-5 X Rendering Extension client l= ibra ii xlibs 4.2.1-12.1 X Window System client librari= es ii zlib1g 1:1.2.1-3 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information --=20 Helge Kreutzmann, Dipl.-Phys.
