Post-jessie we need to either: - build systemd-journal-gatewayd but artificially remove the dependency from the systemd package - split systemd-journal-gatewayd to a separate package - have the systemd package depend on libmicrohttpd - decide that we do not want to support systemd-journal-gatewayd #1 is a very simple change but will seriously confuse the users who do not RTFM. #2 needs some testing but should not cause a significant long term maintenance burden on us. The patch in #742802 needs some minor changes (remove postrm and README.Debian) but it looks simple enough. I do not like #3 at all and the other maintainers concour, or we would have already done this. At this time I see no obvious justifications for #4, but still it would help if the people interested in enabling this feature could document how it is used in practice. -- ciao, Marco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
