That is true, but that doesn't make the package "important" in the sense I got from his message. What I envisioned was core packages. IE, things that, without them, Debian would not run (libc?) or would leave a gaping hole that a slew of people would miss (apache?). I ITP'd parchive2, have the package done and waiting on a sponsor. I and pretty much anyone else who decodes binaries off the newsgroups uses it. I don't believe it qualifies as important as he meant it even though it is important to me. -- Steve C.
