If the NMU'ed utf8 slang is binary-compatible with the non-utf8 library, why is diverting a bad thing? It seems to me that most of the prior problems were because slang-utf8 was *not* compatible, or not functional; if this has been addressed, I would prefer that all slang-based software on my system be able to automatically take advantage of utf8 support without a recompile.
