I'm not totally sure what _exactly_ is being said here... so paraphrasing: * Ross prefers dropping screen 4.0.3 but keeping 4.3.1 in oe-core, correct? * Otavio/Khem, are you saying we should remove screen from oe-core and put 4.3.1 into meta-oe, or did I misunderstand? For what it's worth, I'm happy to remove 4.0.3 at least: if Debian thought it required 19k lines of patching (in oldoldstable days!), there could well be dragons there and I wasn't planning on spending much time finding them.
