Package: jwm
Version: 2.3.6-1
Severity: wishlist

        The package Description: currently (2.3.7-3) reads:

 JWM is a window manager for the X11 Window System. JWM is written in C
 and uses only Xlib and (optionally) the shape extension and libXpm. […]

        However, as of 2.3.6-1 (stretch), the jwm Debian package is
        built with SVG support, which adds considerably to its footprint.

        I actually have two requests regarding this situation:

         a. could the description of the package please be fixed to
            mention that

 This JWM package is built with support for the full suite of supported
 image formats, including JPEG, PNG, SVG and XPM; as well as Xinerama
 and Xrender extensions, and FreeType-based font rendering.

         b. an alternative jwm-tiny package is provided with the minimal
            set of dependencies (in the spirit of vim-tiny.)

        TIA.
