Bug#827942: src:gnuplot: All packages that give you a functional gnuplot should Provides:gnuplot

[Dima Kogan]

Package: src:gnuplot
Severity: normal

Hi. Today I installed gnuplot5-qt to plot stuff. Then I tried to install
some other package that Depends:gnuplot, and it demanded that I then
install gnuplot5 also. Should this be necessary? I'm thinking that
we should have more Provides tags to make more things work without
requiring extra packages.

So anything that gives you a gnuplot that can make plots
(gnuplot{,5}-{nox,x11,qt}) should Provides:gnuplot. And gnuplot5-*
should Provides:gnuplot5. Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks!
