[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#987769: cryptsetup Recommends cryptsetup-run which is a transitional package

[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:2.3.5-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

cryptsetup recommends cryptsetup-run which is a transitiona package
pulling cryptsetup.

That creates a "soft" dependency loop.

cryptsetup should probably stop recommending cryptsetup-run

Kind regards,
Laurent Bigonville
