configuration of system authentication, using that staple of the Debian
system, debconf.
It's unfortunate that this wasn't ready to go in
Deborphan needs a way to detect shared libraries like the ones currently
in section libs and distinguish them from packages which are technically
shared libraries but can not assumed to be orphaned when no other
package depends on them. The obvious examples for such packages are

If no existing tag is appropriate, then either the facet does not

The powerdev group only exists if hal is installed, which is only the
