Bug#968508: blender-data: Please only recommend blender instead of python3



Package: blender-data
Version: 2.83.3+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Installing blender-data alone doesn't make much sense. It
is most useful with the blender package.
So, please:
	Recommends: blender (= ${source:Version})
Don't use "Depends", because that would introduce a
circular dependency. Which is not good.

On the other hand, blender-data does not need to depend on
python3. Yes, there are some python scripts in there, but
they do only make sense together with blender.

If you want to keep the python3 dep, please turn it into
python3:any, and also into a Recommends. Recommends means
"You really should install this. If you don't, expect
missing functionality", which seems right then.


Cheers

    Elrond
