Bug#1093510: kde-plasma-desktop: zutty is installed with the desktop environment

[username <vladiruzz@gmail.com>]

Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:142
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: vladiruzz@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to install KDE in the minimal installation option.

I uninstalled zutty because it is not part of the kde programs.

I was expecting zutty not to be installed, and this behavior is somewhat annoying. Many users complain that debian ships a lot of unnecessary packages, even in a minimal installation.

I and many users will be grateful to debian maintainers if they remove zutty and other redundant packages from desktop metapackages so that they don't have to be removed manually.
