Package: firebird2.0-common
Version: 2.0.3.12981.ds1-6
Severity: minor
For some reason, this package is now installed on my system, probably via KDE
and Qt. Fair enough. But for surprised users like myself, the package
description tells me nothing about what this "firebird" thing is:
"""
Description: common files for firebird 2.0 servers and clients
This package contains files common to both servers and clients for both super
and classic flavours.
.
These include the security database, message file (firebird.msg), support
scripts as well as configuration files in /etc/firebird/2.0.
.
Please refer to the firebird2.0-super or firebird2.0-classic packages for more
information about Firebird in general.
"""
Including the phrase "database management system" somewhere would make this a
whole lot clearer.
