I thought what you wanted was to drop cjwatson-which, either in favour
of no which in Debian at all, or the option to install GNU or BSD which.

However, you have now suggested that someone could package
cjwatson-which in another package.  But in that case, what do you see
removing cjwatson-which from debianutils as achieving?

Thanks.
