Package: nvidia-kernel-source Version: 1.0.7174-1 Severity: minor nvidia-kernel-source currently recommends devscripts and kernel-package and has no dependency at all on nvidia-kernel-common. I am submitting this bug to ask that all 3 are reconsidered, but if any of the changes I suggest are not desirable, please close the bug anyway.
devscripts This package has the description "Scripts to make the life of a Debian Package maintainer easier" so at first glance it's hard to see why someone who just wants 3D acceleration would need it. I don't see what's the use neither, but anyway the 3D acceleration works for me, so I suspect that devscripts isn't, as policy reads, a "packages that would be found together with this one in all but unusual installations." kernel-package Here, the README.Debian makes clear that make-kpkg is needed when a custom kernel is used. However, I still wonder if using a stock kernel can be considered an unusual installation, since it's that way by default. For these two cases, I suggest to make the recommendations suggestions. nvidia-kernel-common The README.Debian mentions the installation of this package in both methods. Shouldn't this package be suggested, if not recommended? -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-k7 Locale: LANG=fr_CA, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages nvidia-kernel-source depends on: ii debhelper 4.2.30 helper programs for debian/rules ii dpatch 2.0.10 patch maintenance system for Debia ii make 3.80-9 The GNU version of the "make" util ii sed 4.1.2-8 The GNU sed stream editor -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
