madwifi-ng-dev_0.9.0+svn1416-1

[Pascal DORMEAU]

Hi,

Why is madwifi-ng-dev depending on madwifi-ng-source ?

In the madwifi-ng-dev package description, for the example given 
(compiling wpa_supplicant), the source tree is not necessary, the 
includes are enough (from my experience with wpa_supplicant 
compilation). Moreover, when the source package is installed, the source 
tree is not untared (still inside /usr/src/madwifi-ng.tar.bz2, making it 
unusable).

May I suggest to change "Depends: madwifi-ng-source" by something like 
"Recommends: madwifi-ng-source" ?

However, I could be wrong (I am not a developer, and I have no skills in 
this field),  there might be something I don't understand and a could 
reason for that dependency. In such case, just ignore this message.

Thanks for maintaining the madwifi-ng experimental packages, they work 
perfectly on my systems.
