Bug#623665: viewmol: is the libxp-dev build-dependency necessary?

[Drew Parsons]

Source: viewmol
Version: 2.4.1-17
Severity: minor

You have a build-depends on libxp-dev, but no dependency on libxp6 in
your binary package.  This likely means you don't actually need
libxp-dev. The build-depends may have turned up historically when the
monolithic Xfree86 package was split into X.org modules (when the
all-encompassing xlibs package was split into separate libx*
packages).

This bug has been filed to prompt you to check if you really want
Xprint (libxp-dev) support in your package.
