Bug#1125219: elpa-gnuplot-mode: change depends on gnuplot (and variants) to suggests



Package: elpa-gnuplot-mode
Version: 1:0.11-1
Severity: wishlist

Currently elpa-gnuplot-mode Depends on "gnuplot-qt | gnuplot-x11 |
gnuplot" which will pull in gnuplot-qt by default.  This may be what
users want most of the time, but it will pull in a larger set of
packages, mostly the Qt stack, which may surprise users.  I would like
to suggest that lower the requirements on gnuplot and variants to
"Suggests", so that people who only want editing support gets only what
they need.  This also enables users to use external tools that are not
installed through Debian while having editing support.
