I don't think what you want is likely to happen; nevertheless, the priorities system does mandate that packages of higher priority not depend on packages of lower priority. Depending on your needs, you could choose packages of important or higher or those of standard or higher as your core set (this is on sid): lakeview ok % aptitude -q search '~prequired|~pimportant' | wc -l 123 lakeview ok % aptitude -q search '~prequired|~pimportant|~pstandard' | wc -l 249 Most of the important or higher packages are very stable and unlikely to break things at all. Neither Debian nor I guarantee this, though. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
