[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#661200: r-cran-vegan should Depends: r-cran-lattice

[Don Armstrong]

Package: r-cran-vegan
Severity: important
Version: 2.0-2-1

It is not possible to require(vegan) without having lattice installed;
thus r-cran-vegan should Depends: r-cran-lattice. [I'd also recommend
that the packages which are currently listed as Suggests: should be
Recommends: instead, as various functions of r-cran-vegan will break
if they're not available.]

FE:

(unstable-i386-sbuild)root at jilx:/home/don# apt-get remove r-cran-lattice
[...]
(unstable-i386-sbuild)root at jilx:/home/don# R
[...]
