Source: dracut
Version: 106-5
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 2.2.1
Dear Maintainer,
dracut-core currently recommends the package dmraid which has been
removed from debian, see #1056944 [1].
recommending a package that is not present in debian main is considered
a violation of a 'must' directive of the debian policy, which carries a
'serious' severity for bug reports [2].
Debian policy [3] states:
"the packages in main must not require or recommend a package outside of
main for compilation or execution (thus, the package must not declare a
Pre-Depends, Depends, Recommends, Build-Depends, Build-Depends-Indep, or
Build-Depends-Arch relationship on a non-main package unless that
package is only listed as a non-default alternative for a package in
main)"
Please review your package dependencies so that they are aligned with
the debian policy. Thanks.
Patch attached that removes the dmraid dependency from the control file.
I don't know if it's suitable to also remove the unpacking of
usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90dmraid in dracut-core.install so I did not
remove it.
