that is a minimum. isn't it? ;) and then we will need some ``apt-get info pkg'' hehe.. > and a virtual release-pkgs-gz.deb will depend on some selected part of those > any.pkg-gz to get up a release. say one release contains 2000 pkgz, each pkg name is 10 chars, then the whole infomation is a little more then 20k, compare with nowadays, a more than 1M. and you could have base-3.3-release, and gnome-4.4-release which depends on base-3.2-release and x-5.6-release. and chinese-2.0-release etc. ... > then katie will remove a package only when no release-pkgs-gz.deb (or > testing, or whatever) depends on its.pkg-gz zw
