Bug#838755: texlive-latex-extra: package datetime2 can not be used without tracklang.sty from texlive-generic-extra

[Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de>]

Package: texlive-latex-extra
Version: 2016.20160819-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

datetime2 needs tracklang.sty. Trying to build one of the examples:

pdflatex /usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/datetime2/samples/datetime2-sample-filedate.tex

gives:

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.17 (TeX Live 2016/Debian) (preloaded format=pdflatex)
 restricted \write18 enabled.

! LaTeX Error: File `tracklang.sty' not found.

Installing texlive-generic-extra fixes the problem. I understand that latex
dependencies are tricky, still I thought I'd let you know.

Thanks,
