You can do this with the attached patch overriding the dist target to
afterwards change the d/control file. Feel free to `git am` into the
repository.
Since a long time I'm wondering whether we should craft tasks files to
express what we "really" want (like specifying mostly all dependencies
as "Recommends" and leave the "Depends" for what we really mean as
Depends. Since there are the frequently discusses drawbacks and
compatibility issues with the current tasks files this is nothing that
should be done quickly. So for the moment "post-processing" of the
d/control file in the proposed manner should provide a quick (and
hopefully not to dirty) solution.
Kind regards
Andreas.
