 Well, the description is just one package field and the Recommends
 field in the package already expresses that libgnomevfs2-extra is a
 strong dependency and should be installed in all but unusual cases.
 Repeating it in the description sounds lame, and APT should be fixed
 instead, but I'm told this is going to take another while, hence I
 added a Depends instead.
