Package: cyrus-common Version: 2.4.17+caldav~beta10-1 Severity: minor cyrus-common Recommends cyrus-imapd | cyrus-pop3d | cyrus-murder | cyrus-nntpd | cyrus-admin | cyrus-caldav. Policy ยง7.2 says:
The `Recommends' field should list packages that would be found together with this one in all but unusual installations. I've used the Cyrus clients for testing for several years on numerous systems. I'm not at all interested in using Cyrus for mail. I suspect I'm not in the minority here, and this dependency means that anyone with the clients installed will automatically have cyrus-imapd installed unless they explicitly deselect it. Considering many people use the clients on a laptop or desktop, where an IMAP server is not wanted, this dependency should probably be downgraded to a Suggests. I particularly don't think having only the clients installed is an "unusual installation". -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-rc6-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cyrus-common depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii cdebconf [debconf-2.0] 0.191 ii db-upgrade-util 5.3.0 ii db-util 5.3.0 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.53 cyrus-common recommends no packages. cyrus-common suggests no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
