Re: Please categorise your packages for the Debian Science metapackages (second iteration)
Dear Thomas,
thanks for your attempt to help. Hope I can clarify how you can do this
more easy.

I'm sorry, but this is no valid excuse. You just need Git to download
the repository and the repository has 5MB. :-P

What do you mean here? The repositories are on alioth. You can also
perfectly login to Alioth and clone + commit + push.

Please not that always *binary* packages (second column of the table)
are mentioned in tasks files. So I guess you mean coinor-libcoinmp-dev
which I added to mathematics-dev and added Suggests in logic and
numericalcomputation (where we do not yet have development tasks -
probably for the only reason because nobody cared about this so far)

I admit I have not found any of the mentioned packages (coinbc,
coinsymphony, coincg) in the Debian package pool. Please note that I'm
not an expert on this field and never used COIN. So in case this
might be important I'd need more precise information.

You mean here the binary packatge libcollada-dom2.4-dp-dev and whether
it is given in Debian Science you can check either in Git[1] or as I
recommended in my mail on the tasks page[2].

If something is "arguable" then I tend to set only "Suggests".

I've added
Depends: evolver-ogl | evolver-nox
to all three tasks.
