Policy 7.2. is quite clear on this:
The `Depends' field thus allows package maintainers to impose an order
in which packages should be configured.
The meaning of the five dependency fields is as follows:
`Depends'
This declares an absolute dependency. A package will not be
configured unless all of the packages listed in its `Depends'
field have been correctly configured.
So a normal dependency should fit Richie fine.
