Package: texlive-extra-utils
Version: 2014.20141024-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
the pdfjam program from the texlive-extra-utils needs pdfpages.sty from
texlive-latex-recommended. This has already been reported in #691690. However,
only a "Recommends:" dependecy has been added to texlive-extra-utils. I think
this should be a hard "Depends:" dependency, since pdfjam is completely
unusable without pdfpages.sty.

pdfjam is just one tool shipped with tl-extra-utils. Our policy to keep
cross-package dependencies low (otherwise we could have made one big 5G
TeX Live package right from the beginning) is that if only a very small
part needs a different package, we use recommends.
All the best
Norbert
