[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Bug#813537: tails-installer: tails installer fails with extlinux error

[Stefani Banerian]

Package: tails-installer
Version: 4.4.6+dfsg-1~bpo8+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


In attempting to run tails installer an error message about missing extlinux was encountered.
It is true that this package was not installed on the system.

I did not find a "depends" of extlinux package in the "control" file.
Perhaps extlinux should be required?
