Thanks for the report. This package is in collab-maint and the
dependency was not added by me:

I have cc'd the author and committer for further discussion, as I'm
assuming there was a good reason for this change. However the commit is
not linked to a bug ticket so I have no further details, sorry.

Cheers!

Daniel
