I guess you are referring to lazarus. <sarcasm> Oh horror: The meta-package lazarus-0.9.30.4 forces 70MB of documentation down my throat! That's not freedom of choice, that is outragous! That package should only recommend its dependencies, for those 1-2% custom users needing the convenience of the meta-package without the burden og that documentation part. </sarcasm> As with any package available in Debian: Just don't install it if you do not like what the package does!
