cjwatsonslangasek: I can't think of one.  Check the kernel source control file before you start changing overrides, though; if it says metapackages there, then we need to get that changed since those often leak into the archive for one reason or another; and if that's the case there might also be a hint in the associated changelog00:30
cjwatsonIt may have been a misunderstanding of semantics ...00:31
slangasekcjwatson: yeah, checked the changelog of linux-meta and didn't find anything; I mentioned it to ogasawara this morning when I spotted the issue, and am following up with a bug report00:31
cjwatsonI saw a bare statement there of the change, but nothing more useful than that00:31
cjwatson(search for "metapackage" rather than "metapackages")00:32
slangasekah00:32
slangasekwell, first mention is from 2012 and is just about moving the headers + powerpc packages to match the rest00:33
cjwatsongit isn't useful here, as the change goes back to when the relevant files were checked in AFAICS00:34
ScottKmetapackages didn't always mark  not-for-autoremoval did it?00:35
ScottKI have a vague recollection that it came a bit later, so maybe it didn't matter when it was done.00:36
cjwatsonIt's been a while, but my memory is that it was introduced with that specific purpose00:37
ScottKCould be.00:37
cjwatsonha, I made the change00:37

ubottuLaunchpad bug 114662 in linux-meta (Ubuntu) "move to Section: metapackages" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/11466200:37
cjwatsonrationale then was that metapackages had different Recommends handling, so maybe you're right and *that* was the original purpose00:38
cjwatsonthat's clearly no longer relevant00:38
slangasekhmm :)00:42
slangasekoh, fwiw we also have some distinctly broken handling of oldlibs packages, which are being treated the same as metapackages and causing random libs to be marked 'manual' :/00:43
slangasekok, fixing up some overrides00:44
infinityslangasek: Oh, did you take over the autoremoval thing from me?01:59
slangasekinfinity: yes, Patty's /boot is full now and needs attending ;)02:00
