Well, minicom had to conflict with lrzsz because otherwise it might
silently delete lrzsz files which is the sort of suprise we want to avoid. 

It's not really wierd --- if you look at the original distribution of
minicom on sunsite, you'll see that it includes lrzsz.  I was just
following the original author's intention. 

Anyway, I've reconsidered that, and am going back to the two packages
again. 

Mike.

Package: minicom
Version: 1.71-2

It's weird that minicom includes rz and sz and conflicts with package
lrzsz. Wouldn't it be more nicer, if minicom depended on lrzsz and
didn't include rz and sz?
