Quality Assurance

The piuparts logfile for these packages contains the string

E: Essential packages were removed and -y was used without --allow-remove-essential

This is usually not an error in the package and it needs to be seen how piuparts should deal with it.

The commandline to find these logs is:

COMMAND='grep -E "E: Essential packages were removed and -y was used without --allow-remove-essential"'
