Bug#437414: kdelibs4c2a: Please stop recommending perl-suid
Package: kdelibs4c2a
Version: 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal
Hi,
it seems to me that the "Recommends: perl-suid" is inappropriate.
AFAICS, it's only needed by fileshareset and the functionality that
this script provides is rather special.
Looking at popcon, perl-suid has only 8064 installations, while
kdelibs4c2a has 30406, so most people seem to get along without
perl-suid (which seems to be deprecated anyway, BTW).
