Package: fonts-ipafont-nonfree-jisx0208
Version: 00103-17
Severity: serious
Hi,
fonts-ipafont-nonfree-jisx0208 package provides
fonts-japanese-{gothic,mincho} as virtual package,
but this virtual package is not listed in virtual-package-names-list.txt.
We must register fonts-japanese-{gothic,mincho} as virtual package.

Best regards,
Nobuhiro

That's a should, not a must, and excludes cooperating groups of
packages. Also what happened to discussing mass-bug filings on
debian-devel? Closing.
Cheers,

Hi,
Why are these bugs closed?
Is it because an item is not "must" at a virtual package?
Best regards,
Nobuhiro

Because it's not clear to me what you think the bug is, because you
didn't discuss this mass bug filing on -devel, and because even if
there's a bug it's in no way serious. You can do better.
Cheers,
Julien
