Subject: fonts-ipaexfont-gothic: fonts-japanese-gothic is not registered as virtual package

Package: fonts-ipaexfont-gothic
Version: 00103-8
Severity: serious

Hi,

fonts-ipaexfont-gothic package provides fonts-japanese-gothic as
virtual package,
but this virtual package is not listed in virtual-package-names-list.txt.

We must register fonts-japanese-gothic as virtual package.
    http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#s-virtual_pkg

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
