Hi piuparts Maintainers!
I'm not quite sure what to do about this piuparts error, and would
like your input on it. Log:
https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/fdisk_2.35.1-3.log
| 0m20.1s ERROR: Command failed (status=100): ['chroot', '/srv/piuparts.debian.org/tmp/tmpeefoxtsu', 'apt-get', 'remove', 'libfdisk1:amd64', 'libncursesw6:amd64', 'fdisk']

| WARNING: The following essential packages will be removed.

| E: Essential packages were removed and -y was used without --allow-remove-essential.
I don't really understand what piuparts tries to do here:
- fdisk is Important: yes (but not Essential: yes)
- piuparts tries to remove fdisk
- apt complains about that
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Chris
