Bug#750794: engrampa: please downgrade recommends:rpm2cpio to suggests:

[Adam Borowski]

Package: engrampa
Version: 1.8.0+dfsg1-5
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

For some reason, engrampa automatically installs rpm2cpio (and its
dependencies), while it merely suggests decompressors for a number of
popular archivers.  This seems wrong to me: RPM is by no way a
general-purpose archiver.  RPM files are pretty unlikely to be found on a
Debian system, as well.  Thus, I'd suggest downgrading rpm to a Suggests:

It might be also a good idea to upgrade unzip and xz-utils to Recommends:
