Package: libsane Version: 1.0.19-23 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
avahi-daemon provides functionality which is completely orthogonal to libsane. There are plenty of use cases for libsane without avahi-daemon. Thus, avahi-daemon does not fulfill the policy requirements for a Recommended package and should be demoted to a Suggested package. This bug is filed in an attempt to reduce the set of Recommended packages enough for me to be able to install an ordinary desktop system without disabling APT::Install-Recommends.
