Hi,

Theodoros Foradis <address@hidden> skribis:

What’s the reason for this?

Propagated inputs should be used sparsely because they “pollute” user
profiles.  Here we’d be forcing a big package, and a specific version of
that, in user profiles, which is not OK.

Apart from that the patch LGTM though, so if we can remove these two
lines, we can commit.

Thank you!

Ludo’.
