I do think that is intended to say that the package maintainer should write one, and that's the most common interpretation that I've seen in debian-mentors as well. They're not *required*, no, but that's true of any should. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
