Hello everyone, I just pushed version 4.6.2.0 of the Debian Policy Manual and related documents to sid. Below you will find the significant normative changes from the previously announced release of Policy (4.6.1). There are also a number of terminological and presentational improvements included in this release, not detailed below. Thanks to Russ Allbery, Guillem Jover, Charles Plessy and Daniel Shahaf. =*=*=*= 3.8 Essential packages are only required to provide their core functionality when unconfigured if they had previously been configured at least once. 6.5 & 6.6 The new package version is provided as an additional argument following the old package version to several ``preinst``, ``prerm``, and ``postrm`` maintainer script actions. 11.8.4 When computing the priority for alternatives for ``/usr/bin/x-window-manager``, start with a priority of 40, not 20, and don't increase the priority based on support for the (obsolete) Debian menu system. -- Sean Whitton
