Yes, that sounds better. Will do, thanks.

This is for transitional reasons: hwclock (and some other less important bits) got moved to -extra. I want to avoid surprises for users that still need hwclock. After bookworm I'll replace Depends with Suggests/Recommends. Technically the Depends from irqtop to util-linux-extra is not needed. I think it still makes sense to have it, in case the relations between util-linux and util-linux-extra change before the release. Do you agree? Chris
