Re: Bug#1035904: dpkg currently warning about merged-usr systems (revisited)

[Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>]

Hi Ansgar,

After discussing this at our monthly meeting, we concluded that the 
technical committee isn't going to take action on this at the moment. 
There's a legitimate technical consideration behind the warning, and 
it's necessary for derivatives to ensure that they handle the associated 
scenarios properly. While those underlying technical issues exist, we 
think it's premature for the committee to intervene on this specific 
issue.

Thanks,

Matthew Garrett, on behalf of the Debian technical committee
