1 now that the mktemp binary has been moved out of debianutils and integrated
2 straight into coreutils, perhaps it's time to ask how important this package
3 is to everyone. current debianutils is part of "system" and provides:
4 - installkernel
5 - run-parts
6 - tempfile
7 - savelog
8 - mkboot
9 do people consider these things critical ? i dont know the last time i
10 personally needed/wanted any of these ...
