Package: phpmyadmin
Version: 4:4.1.7-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

the latest update of phpmyadmin pulled in php-tcpdf as a hard Depends.
This is a rather heavyweight dependency (13,1 MB installed size).

The debian changelog doesn't mention why a hard dependency is necessary.

Can you please consider lowering this dependency to Suggests (or
Recommends) if it just enables additional features and maybe document
what those features are / what it is used for.

Thanks,
Michael
