Old apt versions ignore "-o APT::Install-Recommends=false" options, so I've decided to add that to apt invocations to pbuilder-satisfydepends-classic. Also I'm installing /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/15pbuilder with that change. I hope that should fix things up. I think I need to fix pbuilder-satisfydepends-experimental also. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
