Re: Bug#29874: optional packages that should be extra

[Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@golden-gryphon.com>]

Hi,

	I must confess that even I thought the the policy statement
 meant that one should be able to install all optional packages
 simultaneously. 

	Though this is a laudable goal, and indeed, was once
 achievable, but with all the packages that we have now (pushing on to
 3000), I don't know if we can actually make the promise stick.
