Unless this causes install failures on some arches, I think it's too complicated to get the dependencies just right to downgrade this before the release. We would likely miss something and break i386 in a corner case, or something like that. If it does cause install failures or bad behavior on s390, it could be modified as a workaround to exit 0 immediatly on that architecture. I realise this isn't ideal.. > - usb-discover: pulled in via dependencies. No dependencies, but it is on all of the i386 initrds, so I agree. > - userdevfs: should never automaticaly installed. It's on all the m68k initrds, but would not be installed for any other architectures. I think this is right, since it's for 2.2 kernels and only m68k is using such a kernel. > - libuuid1-udeb, debootstrap-udeb, libblkid1-udeb, libc-udeb: > pulled in via dependencies. I think that libc-udeb is problimatical. Not enough depends on it for us to be sure it is automatically pulled in in all situations. Again, I think this should be revisited after the release; it certianly does no harm as-is, and it works. I agree about the other libs. I'm also considering downgrading baseconfig-udeb, since only experts should use it anyway. Also possibly autopartkit, for similar reasons, and to save memory. -- see shy jo
