[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#631158: konversation: Hard dependency on a complete pim stack

[Andreas Pakulat]

Package: konversation
Version: 1.3.1+git264+g6dfad44-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I was quite amazed today to see that an IRC app has a hard dependency on
kdepim-runtime, which effectively means requiring a complete pim stack
(except for the actual pim-apps like kmail or kontact). I can certainly
understand that kdepim provides features that konversation wishes to
use, but I don't think it'll completely break down if the package is not
installed. So I think it would be better to mark kdepim-runtime as a
recommends instead of a Depends.

Andreas
