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.
