mksh is only a key package because shunit2 build-depends on it.
Ack.
(Would be nice if the key package status is shown in tracker or so… I was surprised by its presence in the list.)
That would need somebody to work on a patch for the tracker. :)
However, shunit2 only uses it at build time to run its tests against and its testsuite runner only fails if the last shell, which is zsh, fails.
Which is a bug in shunit2. Has that been reported?Anyways, to come back to your request, we already communicated [1] that we intend to change the key package situation, but that will be after the bookworm release.
