Bug#663930: debian-policy: New virtual package for naming spec compliant icon themes

[Fernando Lemos <fernandotcl@gmail.com>]

Sorry it me so long to reply, the last couple weeks have been unusually busy...

I think the rationale behind fdo-icon-theme still holds, but I don't plan to package pa-applet anymore in the short or medium term. I don't oppose using the section "Miscellaneous".

Thanks for looking into this.

Dear Fernando and everybody,

is the introduction of the "fdo-icon-theme" still planned ?  If yes, would the
section "Miscellaneous" of virtual-package-names-list.txt be appropriate ?

Have a nice day,
