Package: okular
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

The package description for okular indicates that the package provides a
postscript viewer. It would be nice if the package could include a Provides
header to this effect (Provides: postscript-viewer) so that okular satisfies
the dependency for packages that depend/recommend postscript-viewer. Doing so
would save packages like gv or evince being dragged in to satisfy such a
dependency when okular already suffices. Doing so also makes it easier for
maintainers to indicate that a postscript viewer would be useful for their
package without having to enumerate every single postscript viewer in the
archive.

A list of current users of postscript-viewer can be seen by running:

  apt-cache showpkg postscript-viewer

thanks,
Stuart

Man, how could I boot the editor?

First of all you have to explore a cache of the POP fan.
