Bug#60253: More clearly



> If there is Suggest: tetex-nonfree, why not suggest tetex-extra, too?

Do you really investigate the contents of tetex-nonfree and tetex-extra?

I think that basically tetex-extra and tetex-nonfree are supplement
of tetex-base so it is reasonable

> tetex-bin suggests tetex-extra

because this is a weak form of "tetex-bin depends tetex-base"!

I think, on the contrary to your request, it might be more reasonable 
that one transfer "Suggest: tetex-nonfree" of tetex-base to tetex-bin
too but as the contents of tetex-nonfree are rather trifle so it might 
be enought to set weak dependency as

tetex-bin =(depends)=> tetex-base =(suggests)=> tetex-nonfree

This is rather delicate decision of the maintainer, IMHO.

BTW, I think the following is a bad design of BTS.

> No. 60253@bugs.debian.org reaches the BTS and the maintainer, whereas
> 60253-submitter@bugs.debian.org reaches the BTS and the submitter.
