Package: bluez
Version: 5.77-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I am using Debian/testing (trixie). When I update bluez from 5.77 to 5.79 I get
prompted to download a number of new dependencies from the Evolution groupware
application. The list of new dependencies is:

evolution-data-server-common
libcamel-1.2-64t64
libebackend-1.2-11t64
libebook-1.2-21t64
libebook-contacts-1.2-4t64
libedata-book-1.2-27t64
libedataserver-1.2-27t64
libphonenumber8

I am not completely sure what's pulling these dependencies because the Debian
changelog is traditionally very succint. I can assume it must be the new "Use
ebook phonebook plugin" item I read in the changelog?

I don't use Evolution, I don't keep a phonebook on my workstation. I wish I had
not to install these dependencies.

Would it be possible to make this feature optional?

In any case: thanks for your work.
