3.1.1 Packages with potentially offensive content
-------------------------------------------------

As a maintainer you should make a judgement about whether the contents
of a package is appropriate to include, whether it needs any kind of
content warning, and whether some parts should be split out into a
separate package (so that users who want to avoid certain parts can do
so).  In making these decisions you should take into account the
project’s views as expressed in our Diversity Statement.

If you split out (potentially) offensive or disturbing material into a
separate package, you should usually mark this in the package name by
adding ‘-offensive’.  For example, ‘cowsay’ vs ‘cowsay-offensive’.  In
this situation the ‘-offensive’ package can be Suggested by the core
package(s), but should not be Recommended or Depended on.
