Package: texlive-fonts-extra
Version: 2009-10
Severity: normal

texlive-fonts-extra recommends texpower, but does not give any
description of why it wants texpower.  This makes it difficult to decide
whether to install the recommended package.  It seems non-obvious why a
fonts package would recommend texpower.  Please consider documenting the
reason for this recommendation in the package description, and please
consider downgrading it to a suggests.

Thanks,
Josh Triplett
