Package: madwifi-tools
Version: 1:0.9.3+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
inspired by a recent mail to d-d-announce
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2007/08/msg00000.html):
Debian policy says that only those packages should be recommended by
a package that 'would be found together with this one [the recommending
package] in all but unusual installations'.
I don't think that installing madwifi-tools without its documentation
package is unusual, so please consider only suggesting this package in
madwifi-tools' dependency fields. Thanks!
Cheers,
Wolf
