Exactly, the issue here is whether we should make base-files to depend on
awk or not.

Somebody told me there was an agreement to do that, and I believed it, so
I changed base-files. However, now I'm unable to find the discussion in
the archives. Perhaps it took place before December 1996 (when I joined
Debian).

Does somebody remembers this discussion?

[ If not, I will remove awk from the Depends line, of course ].
