Someone thought there was a problem? What kind of problem was that? Can
you reproduce it? Is it serious? I doubt adding a virtual package just
because someone _thinks_ there _might_ be a problem is a good idea. Not
that I'm against adding a virtual package for these packages, but I think
there should be good reasons to do it.
