That would essentially mean introducing another dimension in the dependency graph (even if it's hidden to dpkg+friends, it'll still be somewhere in the release process). I'd strongly advise against that. Another point: from users/sysop's view, I'd really like to have packages as small as possible, and only those installed which are really required. IIRC these bundles will essentially make few big distro packages out of dozens small upstream packages - exactly the opposite of what I want. cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
