Hi all,
I think that we are asking the impossible, to be universal, cover a large

With our current approach, to rename at least one of the program names, we make
Debian systems incompatible with outside documentation a

Hi,
Ok, might we proceed with the console-tools removal for wheezy?
Bugs have been filed against the following packages:
#645937 goto-fai
#671079 hotkey-setup
#671081 hibernate
#671082 gcpegg
to move to kbd rather than console-tools.

Hi,
I just would like to warm up this thread a bit because I wonder if a
solution would be found in time for Wheezy release. It seems nobody
really seems to care about those suggested scripts and we are breaking a
certain amount of programs if mailcap entries are dropped without any
replacement.

If exim receives an 8 bit mail, even if it hadn't announced 8BITMIME in
