Package: zenmap Version: 7.70+dfsg1-4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
in the new version of zenmap you added a dependency [0] on policykit-1, which has been a recommendation before. Unfortunately there is no reason mentioned in the commit or changelog why this new dependency is needed. Zenmap is working very well for me without it, so I think it should be downgraded to a recommendation. Otherwise zenmap is no longer installable on SysV systems: # apt install zenmap Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following additional packages will be installed: libpam-systemd libpolkit-agent-1-0 libpolkit-backend-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-1-0 policykit-1 systemd systemd-sysv Suggested packages: systemd-container Recommended packages: libnss-systemd python-pysqlite2 The following packages will be REMOVED: sysvinit-core The following NEW packages will be installed: libpam-systemd libpolkit-agent-1-0 libpolkit-backend-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-1-0 policykit-1 systemd systemd-sysv zenmap 0 upgraded, 8 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
