Hello,
the debian-admin CVS repository is not accessible via pserver. After some
discussion with Joey, it looks like it's a choice of DSA rather than a
mistake (security concern with pserver implementation probably). And since

Hello,
I've noticed that some packages conflict or depend on themself. As far
as I know, this makes no sense and the dependency (of conflict) should
be removed, but I prefer to ask here before filing useless bug reports.
This is a list of the packages:

There are lots of valid reasons to do it; tasksel and tasksel-data split
to make it easier for derivatives to replace

If so, why?
(ITPs are filed per source package, but on a first glance, a single
