Bug#257933: debian-policy: "need" is undefined



Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.6.1.1
Severity: minor

The word "need[s]" is used several times in the policy to describe
properties that packages "need" to have and other things.  But the
force of this word is not defined.  It probably means the same thing as
"must", but that should be explained somewhere.

-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
  APT prefers unstable
  APT policy: (500, 'unstable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Kernel: Linux 2.4.24-1-586tsc
Locale: LANG=de_DE@euro, LC_CTYPE=de_DE@euro

-- no debconf information
