Package: kdelibs5-plugins
Version: 4:4.4.5-1
Severity: wishlist
kdelibs5-plugins pulls in kdoctools as "Depends:".
>From the description of kdoctools it seems, that it is
something like a graphical equivalent to "man" or "info".
So it seems a reasonable thing to have on most/many
installs. But some people don't need to be able to read the
docs on some machines.
Can the "Depends:" be turned into a "Recommends:"?
Recommenands means "You REALLY should install this. If you
don't do it, expect missing functionality.", which seems
appropiate here?
Thanks for you considerations

Please don't. kdoctools is an integral part of kde4libs, so it should simply
stay as it is, as kdelibs4-based applications can expect to have it around at
any time, and it is a bit late to change kdelibs4 right now. Sorry for the
late answer.
PS. I'm the upstream maintainer of KDocTools in KDE Frameworks.
Ciao
