Demote libreiserfs0.3-0 from minimal to supported?

[Colin Watson]

libreiserfs0.3-0 has been in the minimal seed forever (i.e. since
Warty's base seed, and as far back as our records in bzr go), with this
justification:

 * libreiserfs0.3-0 # gives parted the ability to work with reiserfs

However, this seems to be actively detrimental. In particular, when
using Ubiquity to install to a reiserfs / partition, I get an I/O error
(in VMware, excluding the possibility of a hardware problem). Removing
libreiserfs0.3-0 from the system before installing means that partman
falls back to using mkfs.reiserfs rather than parted to create the
filesystem, which is what we've always done successfully in the
traditional installer, and then a Ubiquity install works fine.

This sort of data corruption under very simple use is evidence to me
that we shouldn't be offering parted with the ability to work with
reiserfs anyway, and thus we'd be better off certainly removing it from
minimal and possibly demoting it to universe too; and of course I'd like
to fix the resulting installer bug as well. Does anyone object to this?

Cheers,
