(Debian specific stuff...Tomasz, you may ignore) I've just read the bug log for #208514 and I must admit that, even if I understand the topic in general (Herbert did not want to make his shell package depend on passwd if it needs add-shell to add it to /etc/shells), I don't understand what is *really* suggested. -should we move add-shell out of the passwd binary package and make it Essential? -what is bad in the current situation where all shells needing add-shell just test for it to be here? Herbert, can you elaborate? Otherwise, I will tend to think like Karl did 1 1/2 year ago and just not fix that bug (in such case, this is not a bug and I'll close it). -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
