Package: python-textile Version: 2.10-3.1.2 Severity: normal
Please remove the recommendation of python-twisted. It's not nice to have to install a big stack like all of python-twisted just to be able to covert a bit of text into HTML. The relation between python-textile and python-twisted is minimum at best. Textile is able to use one function of python twisted that helps it to colorize source code, which is just a slight enhancement. The recommendation should be lowered to a "Suggests" at best. Preferably the relation is removed all together. It should be trivial to simply include the one file from twisted in this package and change Textile to look for it in a different location. This is what the upstream author recommends in his README as well. He suggest to simply grab the one file from Twisted since it does not have any dependency on any other part of twisted. He does not suggest installing twisted just for that single function.
