Source: gsl Version: 2.8+dfsg-5 Severity: minor Looking at #503290, "it bloats the archive" was the only argument against building libgsl-prof by default.
I remember how there was a minor issue on the Debian mirrors several years ago when we had the first file > 2 GB in the archive (an .orig.tar). libgsl-prof is 4 MB. It would be both more convenient for users and easier to maintain if libgsl-prof just gets built by default. (I was affected by the latter with the 2.6+dfsg-2+deb11u1 LTS upload, which originally hit NEW and needed a backport of pkg.gsl.prof to avoid NEW.)
