Hi!

texlive-extra-utils currently recommends dvi2tty and dvidvi. IMHO they
should be dropped to Suggests:, since LaTeX defaults and encourages
using PDF now. Especially the former package needs to go, since
dvi2tty is orphaned and not in testing (thus Lenny would have an
unresolvable Recommends:). For that reason I mark the bug as
important.

Similarly, texlive-base-bin's Recommends: perl-tk seems too strong to
me. I am a fairly regular LaTeX user and have never ever needed it.

IMHO all three should be dropped to Suggests:.

Thanks for considering,

Martin

* Demote dvi2tty and dvidvi from Recommends to Suggests. The former is not
  in Debian testing and orphaned, and in general current LaTeX defaults and
  encourages the PDF format now (instead of the ancient DVI).
* Demote perl-tk, too. It is really not something that most LaTeX users will
  ever need to be installed by default.
