Package: php4-gd
Version: 4:4.3.10-15
Severity: wishlist

php4-gd from oldstable have dependencies:
libgd1 (>= 1.8.4-11) or libgd1-noxpm (>= 1.8.4-11)

but php4-gd from new stable have dependencies only libgd2-xpm and no 
alternative for libgd2-noxpm
This way it is forcing useless libraries to system 
(apt-get install libgd2-xpm is telling these will remove libgd2-noxpm and 
install 13.4Mb of useless stuff)

Pretty bad for routers with small harrdisk (either some old piece of HDD  
or CF-IDE reduction with some 256 mb compactflash or so)

What point is with having alternatives, if there is no choice in 
dependencies? I think the dependency should be changed to libgd2-xpm or 
libgd2-noxpm
