In Debian Edu, we install rosegarden for pupils to create music, and rosegarden recommend lilypond to get a system for typesetting and printing the music sheets created. But these rosegarden users do not need nor want the lilypond-doc documentation. I believe it would be great for Debian Edu if lilypond only suggested lilypond-doc, and did not recommend it, as our disk footprint would go down, the installation time would be reduced and the amount of data needed to download in a PXE installation would be reduced too. :) Please reconsider the wontfix tag on this bug. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
