Python-webpy: unnecessary Recommends?
I am installing Pylons in Aptitude and noticed that MySQL is one of
the automatic dependencies to be installed. It appears that the
responsible package is python-webpy which recommends python-mysqldb.
Webpy does not require a database connection. Therefore I believe
the correct dependency is Suggests.
Should I file a bug report for this? I never reported an issue like
this so I want to be sure I'm getting this right.
BTW: I'm also not sure why Pylons depends on webpy. Webpy isn't
mentioned in the Pylons Install Guide
(http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonsdocs/Installing+Pylons) and an
Easy Install of Pylons doesn't pull it in. I know nothing yet about
Pylons and so could be completely wrong on this.
