Package: netcat-openbsd
Severity: wishlist

Please link against libbsd, now that it has been available in stable
for quite a while, instead of glib.

Some day, libbsd may get upped to important (I hope), so that this
can replace netcat-traditional and netcat6 at once. It’s also much
more lightweight a dependency AND the “original source” of strlcpy
and friends AND will probably require a much smaller patch only.
