Package: src:gpgme1.0
Version: 1.8.0-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

Today I noticed that "aptitude install ~pstandard" pulls in many more 
packages than it used to. A significant part of this seems to be 
transitive Depends of libgpgmepp-dev, via qtbase5-dev.

It looks like Priority: standard is set for the entire gpgme1.0 source 
package (all binaries). Please consider reducing the priority of the 
binary packages that are not dependencies of other Priority: standard 
packages (at least the -dev and -doc packages).

Please let me know if I should report this instead as an override 
request against ftp.debian.org.

thanks,
Ryan
