Description: This is part of  FS#12890  , i thought id make a seperate report now for dmapi.
Dmapi is only used by xfsdump which is in extra. There is no reason to keep it in core, let alone base, if xfsdump isnt along with it.

"according to gentoo it is needed as runtime depend on xfsprogs, so we cannot move it out."

Source? http://gentoo-portage.com/AJAX/Ebuild/85377/View clearly doesnt say so. The only runtime dependency is e2fsprogs.

Its not a dependency on Debian either: http://packages.debian.org/sid/xfsprogs

Maybe you are mistaking it with http://gentoo-portage.com/AJAX/Ebuild/81266/View ?
xfsprogs is the one thats a runtime dependency for dmapi, not vice versa.
