Bug#508324: ftp.debian.org: gcc-4.2-base is not really required



Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: serious

The priority of gcc-4.2-base should be downgraded to optional from
required, because the only reason that it was ever required in the first
place is that libgcc1 used to depend on it; and that package is now
built from the gcc-4.3 source package.

Severity set to serious because gcc-4.2-base is currently installed for
no reason on every freshly installed system, and that should be fixed
for Lenny.
