Good point.  Thank you for your suggestion. I am trying to send it to
the right place so that it won't be forgotten.

Are you sure?  The images seem to have alt tags, but also
class="hidecss" which I think hides it.  Then ul.uldep adds images
back in as list-style-image, but I think we can't reliably add alt
text to images used in that way.

As a temporary fix, you can switch CSS off in most browsers, but
I think this is a bug of the new design of packages.debian.org.

What's the best fix?  Put depends/recommends/suggests headings in
between the ul tags?  Try to make the images replace the bullet points
somehow?  (list-style: none and reduce the left margin or padding?) Or
use different shapes for the different types? (disc, circle, square?)

Thanks,

I've now implemented the solution suggested by Richard Atterer. If
someone feels that this doesn't fully resolve the issue, feel free to
reopen the bug.
