Then things will get ugly...

... If we made debhelper build-essential.

Package: debhelper
...
Depends: perl (>= 5.6.0-16), coreutils | fileutils (>= 4.0-2.1), file (>= 3.23-1), dpkg-dev (>= 1.7.0), 
         html2text, debconf-utils (>= 1.1.1), binutils, po-debconf

But, Scott, you do have a good point. 92% of the archive is not an insignificant amount.

Gah...

Thank you Joshua, I couldn't have said it better.

Antti-Juhani, AJ is AJ, and has always been AJ. His initials are "ajt", and his Debian login is "ajt". Get over it. He's called AJ in face to face conversation, and he's been called that for years. I'll continue to call AJ, "AJ". Bleh.

On the topic of AJ, and joshk, they're both right - The debian-legal vocal minority have successfully shafted the rest of us (ok, liberal paraphrasing to come to that interpretation), in their everlasting battle to be little RMS groupies. So, for the current vote, I'll vote like Marco.

First Post!

(In this "Debian" section, that is.)

I adopted xdkcal this last week, since I find it a useful tool, and it was going orphaned. Fixed a rather annoying bug, and added the feature that I wanted... weeks start on a monday dammit :P

The code is rather spaghetti-ish, so if I feel enthused at some stage, I may have a crack at trying to clean it up somewhat. I always feel bad doing that, especially if I end up submitting a patch back to upstream. "Here, this is what I've done, it cleans up your messy code"... :/
