Bug#45307: [PROPOSAL] virtual package ident-server



Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.0.1.1
Severity: wishlist

The proliferation of ident daemons (midentd, oidentd, pidentd) in
Debian necessitates the introduction of a virtual package that these
packages can provide and conflict with (since you can only
[reasonably] run one ident daemon at once).  While "ident-daemon"
seems more intuitive, the name ident-server is more consistent with
existing conventions for daemons.

Per the virtual package policy, this is CC'd to debian-devel.
