Also, it impresses me when a package description says something like "if you need feature X, you are better off with package M, but this package provides feature Y which package M doesn't have."
There was, not so long ago, a complaint about "apt-cache search" returning useless matches because descriptions tended to include stuff not relevent to them. Like searches for "perl" would match php, because they listed a "competitor". If your package doesn't have feature X then you probably shouldn't be mentioning it in the description. What you say is nice to know, but the description is not the right place. Have a nice day, -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@gmail.com> http://svana.org/kleptog/
