</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Does it mean to be one of the choice of the prefdm service ?

</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>        
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> ok, so you mean we need a documented wiki policy page regarding dm

</I>&gt;&gt;<i>      
</I>&gt;<i> Not elegibility, knowing what should be done on a package level to be

</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Likewise, the same should be done for httpd, sendmail-command etc.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>    
</I>Exactly.  Let's document all virtual provides.
