Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.9.1.0
Severity: wishlist

As suggested in thread on debian-devel (starting at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/03/msg00202.html), change the
wording of the parenthetical in the first bullet of section 2.2.1 from

...the packages in main

   • must not require a package outside of main for compilation or
     execution (thus, the package must not declare a "Depends",
     "Recommends", or "Build-Depends" relationship on a non-main
     package)

to

...the packages in main

   • must not require a package outside of main for compilation or
     execution (thus, all declared "Depends", "Recommends", and
     "Build-Depends" relationships must be satisfiable with only
     packages in main)

...Marvin

   * Fix a singular/plural error in 9.6.
     Thanks to Didier Raboud for pointing out the problem.
   * Improve release process documentation in README.md.
   * Policy changes process:
     - Deprecate usage of the 'issue' usertag
       It is usually very clear whether an issue is a policy matter, so bugs
       can be simply closed, or moved to the 'discussion' phase.
       In the rare case that it's not clear whether the bug is a policy matter,
       it can remain unclassified, or be tagged 'moreinfo' (see below).
     - Add policy-specific usage for the 'moreinfo' tag.
   * tools/policy-bug-report:
     - Enhance to fetch bugs that have a given usertag or combination of
       usertags
     - Improve the lists of bugs generated, for posting to Planet Debian.
   * Add convention to upgrading checklist for indicating that a policy
     requirement is covered by Lintian.
