Hello, Nano needs to provide an alternative for editor, and browsing the postinst files of other editors, I saw this on joe: update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/editor editor /usr/bin/joe 70 \ --slave /usr/man/man1/editor.1.gz editor.1.gz /usr/man/man1/joe.1.gz How do I decide my priority? For example, vim has a 20 priority. I have not seen anything in the policy regarding this. Also, I see that vim, elvis and nvi provide an alternative for "vi", (in vim's case, priority 20). I think it's not against the policy if I provide an alternative for "pico"? Would this be evil? I think it wouldn't affect the original pico in any way, and it's a good way to provide a free replacement for a non-free package. Thoughts? If everything is ok, I'll upload a new nano package this night.
