Hi,<br><br>I'm sending this here as a quick question to an audience of DD's before I try to pursue this further.<br><br>I'm not a Debian developer but today I just happened to check "reverse dependencies" on "base-files" in aptitude (Etch) and noticed that a few packages list it as an explicit dependency even though this package is marked as "essential" and has priority "required" (whatever is the difference). Isn't this against policy? If so then who should I contact about this? I don't feel like I'm empowered to mass-file bug reports as a non-DD.
<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>--Amos<br><br>
