+<PRE>Hello!
+
+Situation:
+A package X may have support for a package Y, by a module as a build in
+X or stand-alone package. All modules are possible to turn-on and to
+turn-off in a menu of X.
+
+And there is a discussion because there is no Y at all in Mageia.
+Person A says:
+- include the module, even if there is no Y in Mageia (and maybe never
+will be included), because an end-user can install Y from alternative
+source or compile it from sources; and don't add Suggests/Requires for Y
+in the package, because it's obvious that this is to support Y; also
+installing Y from alternative sources/self-compilation is much simpler
+than reinstalling X with support for Y
+Person B says:
+- don't include the module, because Y is a dependency for the module of
+X - and we don't ship broken packages that aren't self-contained; so it
+must be excluded from X or the nobody has package Y and maintain it
+
+Neither A nor B want to work with Y package.
+
+Who is right?
+</PRE>
