--- Comment #8 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio at earthlink.net> ---
Well, as of yesterday the Linux packaging is my responsibility. So, trying to
sort out the various points in this meandering bug report:

1. In the current (OBS-built) packages, the Depends field is populated by
dpkg_shlibdeps. If you think it's doing it wrong, file a bug with Debian.

2. Our instructions explicitly tell users to install the recommended packages.
You are of course free to do whatever you want on your own system, but any
problems you create for yourself are yours to solve.

3. As you yourself note, if apt doesn't always install everything it should, 
that's a bug in apt. 

4. As to the request for a minimalist package, the answer is no. I am not going
to get into the business of building customized packages for special use cases.
You are, of course, free to build such a package yourself. Anyone can easily
create an OBS account, branch our project, and modify the packaging files to
their hearts' desire.
