[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#768447: hoogle: Should not recommend apache2

Package: hoogle
Version: 4.2.33-2

Hi,

On a system with APT::Install-Recommends "true" (the default),
installing hoogle pulls in apache2. But I assume the default usecase for
the hoogle package is command-line, and most people aren't interested in
the CGI (?).

Maybe the "Recommends: apache2 | httpd" could be changed to a
"Suggests:"? If the policy dictates the Recommends because the hoogle
package includes the CGI, the CGI could go as a separate package.

Thanks,
Jens
