Bug in packaging of dictd (or in aptitude 0.2.13-2) ?



Hi,

I went to purge a package, and aptitude also wanted to remove the
packages dict-foldoc dict-gcide dict-jargon dict-wn, even though 
I have dictd installed.

The only reason I can think of this is because the mentioned pack-
ages are "Suggests:", rather than "Depends:".

Thus, should aptitude not try to remove "Recommends:" and "Suggests:"
packages.

YODA: No... no... no. Quicker, easier, more seductive.
LUKE: But how will I know why Python is better than Perl?
YODA: You will know. When your code you try to read six months
from now.
