Severity: wishlist


lndir only depends on glibc, and it has uses outside of X. It seems wrong to
download the rest of XFree86-common just to get lndir, if the box is never
going to run X.

Correct.

> It seems wrong to download the rest of XFree86-common just to get lndir,

Read the package description of xfree86-common.

xfree86-common doesn't ship lndir; xutils does.

> if the box is never going to run X.

Please read the package description of xfree86-common.

Closing as due to user confusion.
