What is the meaning of the phrase "privately, amongst a cooperating group of packages" in the document AUTHORITATIVE LIST OF VIRTUAL PACKAGE NAMES http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/virtual-package-names-list.txt I quote: > Packages MUST NOT use virtual package names (except privately, amongst > a cooperating group of packages) unless they have been agreed upon and > appear in this list. Could a group of packages using and providing various subsets of the Swiss Ephemeris data use virtual packages names to define what data they provide/require? Is this "privately, amongst a cooperating group of packages"? I guess all names would start swiss_ephemeris_data_ to prevent collisions.
