$SUBJECT says it all. According to the changelog, this dep was added in 2004 but has been removed after that. My crippled-down system with incomplete "system" target can't boot without /bin/mount :).

I think adding it back won't cause any trouble...

those are system packages, merge them

Or add them to your crippled system profile.

Seriously, mount and hostname *should* be part of any unix system.

we dont force the packages because things like busybox could be used instead
