It may be a problem on both ends. It's a problem with the debian package if these packages are "required" but not in the list of dependencies (either Depends or Recommends). It's a problem with pyspread since it says "Warning: Required [...] not found". Well, which one is it? Just a warning, or is it required? If it's actually required to work, it should be an error. If it's just a warning and you can continue, maybe it shouldn't say "required module". The answer to the second one tells you if the modules should be in "Depends" or "Recommends".
