Hi,
there is an effort running to replace unrar-free with unar, because
unrar-free is unmaintained upstream [1]. In the course of this effort,
it was found that replacing unrar-free with unar would pull in
gnustep-base-runtime and thus autostart the gdomap daemon on some 10000
hosts [2][3].
We do not find that desireable, and I second the request of the original
poster to seperate gdomap in its own package and sugegst it from
gnustep-base-runtime or disable it by default.
Attached is a patch that disables the daemon by default. If there are no
good reasons for running the daemon by default, please apply it!
Cheers,
Nik
