From <http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html>: 5.6.9 Essential This is a boolean field which may occur only in the control file of a binary package or in a per-package fields paragraph of a main source control data file. If set to yes then the package management system will refuse to remove the package (upgrading and replacing it is still possible). The other possible value is no, which is the same as not having the field at all. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.
