Your solution is immediate, and I thought about it. I thought also that
probably a better solution in upstream package could be implemented. I
underline that I'm not able to do it. I think feedback with upstream
authors is important and I asked Evan about it. If he's able to have a
dynamic solution to that linking, we should help our users because we
can give all features without forcing the installation of other big
stuff.
