profisis for Debian =================== profisis nags the user that he/she has to install pp-popularity-contest (which already is a Recommends) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the explicit intention of upstream. The software being released free, this is upstream's way of keeping usage counts. That in turn is used to decide what to support upstream and what not. Q: How to silence the warning? A1: Install the 'pp-popularity-contest' package. A2: Create an executable (script) named 'pp_popcon_cnt' and put it somewhere on your $PATH. The program does not need to do anything, an 'exit' is enough.
