- yp-tools is currently in extra. we would need to bring this into core in order to support setting a domainname
I do not think yp-tools is really eligible to go to [core]: strictly- speaking, it is not required to either boot up the computer or connect to the Internet.
However, it can perfectly well be made an optdepends of initscripts while staying in [extra]; this is probably the way to go since yp-tools is not of use to everybody.
I don't think it is even needed to make it an optdepend as initscripts actually doesn't use it. I guess the question boils down to if the "domainname" command needs to be in core, or if it is ok to move it to extra. To the best of my knowledge it should be ok. -t
