Bug#1112350: cinnamon: recommends touchegg which is not in unstable



Subject: cinnamon: recommends touchegg which is not in unstable
Package: cinnamon
Version: 6.4.10-2+b1
Severity: minor
User: carles@pina.cat
Usertags: package-relations

Dear maintainer,

I see that the package cinnamon (version 6.4.10-2+b1) recommends touchegg
which is not in unstable.

This can be seen in https://packages.debian.org/unstable/cinnamon

Should it be dropped or changed?

Note that I see that touchegg exists on Ubuntu. I think that
recommendations are meant to be installed in the majority of
installations. I see at:
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html

"The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together
with this one in all but unusual installations."

So, I think that should not be listed there. But, perhaps it is ok if
done on purpose and not an oversight.

Thank you,
