Thank you, I did not pay attention that the Imports field in the packages
DESCRIPTION equates to a Depends requirement in Debian.
For raising the packages from Suggests to Recommends, I am worried that it
would pull a lot of packages through r-cran-rgl's dependance on mesa.
How will you do in your cran2deb project? Raise all DESCRIPTION Suggests
to debian/control Recommends ?
Have a nice week-end,
