Bug#861542: debian-faq: LSB support in Debian stretch

[Frank Lin PIAT <fpiat@klabs.be>]

Package: debian-faq
Version: 8.1
Severity: normal

Hello,

The state of LSB in Debian Strech is modified, as described in package lsb NEWS
file (quoted below) and in the release notes (see Bug#804264):
URL: https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#reduced-lsb-support

I suppose the FAQ §4.3 should be updated :
  "How compatible is Debian with other distributions of Linux?"
  URL https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-compat.html#s-otherdistribs

Regards,

Franklin

>  This update drops all lsb-* compatibility packages, and is therefore
>  an abandon of the pursuit of LSB compatibility for Debian. Only
>  lsb-release and lsb-base are kept as they continue to be used 
>  throughout the archive.
