Hi Martin, hi Raphael,
thanks to both of you for pointing this out. I was a little bit scared
about the need for a Pre-Depends, because Policy says that it should
best be avoided. Therefore, I wanted to investigate this further while
not delaying the upload.
I'll add this again for the next release, which will happen in about a
month.
Regards,
Tobias
