--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-common Version: 2.04-14 Severity: normal In response to #774910, grub-common gained a dependency on mtools, but I do not think this makes much sense. Creating a rescue disk with grub-mkrescue also requires xorriso, so the dependency on mtools alone is useless. Personally I rely on third party rescue systems like GRML and do not use grub-mkrescue at all, so I think mtools should be demoted to Suggests, like xorriso. Having both in Recommends might sense as well, but a hard dependency looks excessive. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.14-nouveau (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages grub-common depends on: ii gettext-base 0.21-4 ii libc6 2.31-9 ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.175-2 ii libefiboot1 37-6 ii libefivar1 37-6 ii libfreetype6 2.10.4+dfsg-1 ii libfuse2 2.9.9-3 ii liblzma5 5.2.5-1.0 ii mtools 4.0.26-1 Versions of packages grub-common recommends: pn os-prober <none> Versions of packages grub-common suggests: ii console-setup 1.200 pn desktop-base <none> pn grub-emu <none> pn multiboot-doc <none> pn xorriso <none> -- no debconf information
