Both /tmp and /var/tmp have the 17

You might be able to use static linking, but that's generally frowned upon on
Debian. Shipping the library along-side the application is also generally
frowned upon.

Recommends by default.
Depends: $mysql_pkg | $postgres_pkg | $other_pkgs
Recommends $mysql_pkg, $postgres_pkg, $other_pkgs

Either that or your chroot is in a "nodev" mount point. Then
put executables
for a different system, you can specify the "target" [the system it's output

ever, I am a bit surprised that you need to depend on both libdbd-pg-ruby
and postgresql-client. Shouldn't libpq5 (desciprion: PostgrSQL client

client? postgresql-client is only the front-end binaries.
't have time, I wonder if this is a good place for collab-maint to
step in?

Finally, there may be specific policy documents that apply to the package(s)
you are most interested in. For example, maintainers of java-related packages
should be familiar with the "Debian GNU/Linux and Java FAQ".
All of these documents a

grammatically correct as it can be used unchanged in a grammatically correct

In this case, it would also mean the preferred form for modification is the
inksca
for a release (at the least) or dropped
from the repositories and their archives.
