I agree with you, it's a good idea to drop msmtp-gnome and build msmtp
with libsecret support.
For the Recommends, I'd prefer something like this:
Recommends: libsecret-tools | keepassxc | seahorse | kwalletmanager
So that if the user use none of keepassxc, seahorse or kwalletmanager,
he will only pull minimal dependencies with libsecret-tools (ie: glib)
What do you think?
Have a nice day.
