Package: libeel2-2.20
Version: 2.20.0-3
Severity: normal
Without explanation, eel2 (2.20.0-3) adds
* Recommend app-install-data and synaptic.
libeel2-2.20 is a library! Why is it recommending applications? IMO
it's perfectly reasonable to have libeel2-2.20 installed for e.g.
gnome-mount without wanting or needing synaptic and app-install-data,
so these packages SHOULD NOT be recommended by libeel2-2.20.
Is there a good reason for this change?
