It does not have to. We choose to make it work with both sarge and etch, to allow those of us providing a custom debian distribution to use the same package in both the sarge and etch based versions of our CDD. >> It would be better for ltsp if netbase stopped depending on inetd, as >> ltsp do not need inetd, and would like to avoid pulling in unused >> binaries in the boot environment. > > Are we talking about the ltsp server or client here? Here I am talking about the client. It tend to me short on memory and disk space, and have no use for inetd. >> Please change netbase to not depend on inetd. > > This is due to happen after the release of etch.

If I recall this correctly, it is because debootstrap in sarge insist on installing netkid-inetd, and we want openbsd-inetd because it do not start if no services is defined in /etc/inetd.conf and thus save some memory on the client.
