Antoine, as a reminder: mails sent to n...@bugs.debian.org are *not* cc-ed to the submitter. I have bounced your answer to Dominick.

Indeed. That being said, it's true that since recommends are pulled by default, this can be pulling by default more than desired. The reason for the recoommends was only that the atk translated messages are now in at-spi2-core.mo files, shipped by at-spi2-core. I have now uploaded a 2.46.0-2 version that adds a new package, at-spi2-common, to contain them, which atk can thus depend on without trouble. That will have to go through NEW, though. I have increased the severity of this bug to prevent the migration to testing in the meanwhile. Thanks for the report, Samuel
