Is apt2 using the same resolver as apt, and are changes to that resolver coordinated with the existing apt implementation? Does apt2 implement support for multiarch? > Well, you're the only one to complain about the naming.

Some of your comments suggest that the code isn't even written yet. I don't know why you would submit an ITP if there's nothing yet to be packaged. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
