Package: libmatheval
Severity: minor

  Hello !

  I was wondering why libmatheval depends on guile-dev ? When I grep guile, or 
the scm functions that 
configure is looking for, I find them only in the tests/ directory, which is 
not included in the .deb. 
Moreover, a strings on the library produced doesn't give any reference to guile 
or any scm function. 
Finally, I can ./configure it without damage when guile-dev is not installed...

  Could it be that libmatheval simply Build-Depends on guile, but does not 
Depend on it ? 

  If that is such, it would be great to remove the dependency - it's always 
unpleasant to have a small 
and efficient package install a whole bunch of unnecessary big packages ;-) !

  Thanks for considering this report
