[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1135013: gnumed-client: recommends ginkgocadx, ntp and gtklp which are not in unstable

[Carles Pina i Estany]

Subject: gnumed-client: recommends ginkgocadx, ntp and gtklp which are not in unstable
Package: gnumed-client
Version: 1.8.23+dfsg-1
Usertags: package-relations package-relations-recommends
Severity: wishlist

Dear maintainer(s),

I noticed that package gnumed-client recommends ginkgocadx, ntp and
gtklp, which are currently not available in unstable.

See:

- https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/ginkgocadx : was removed in 2021
- https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/ntp : was removed in 2022
- https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gtklp : was removed in 2025-12

For ntp, a possible solution is to the same that dovecot did:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dovecot/-/commit/812f0ea434b313d25aa9177ec2e1805e42649d5f
: to have "systemd-timesyncd | time-daemon". See
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1118232 for more
information.

Would it make sense to remove or update them?

Thank you for your time,
