Package: supercollider-language
Version: 1:3.6.6~repack-2-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

sclang (supercollider-lang) and scsynth (supercollider-synth) can be run on
different machines, so sclang does not strictly require the scsynth to be
installed.
as a consequence i would suggest to drop the *Depends* relationship.

however, since sclang and scsynth will *normally* be installed together, the
relationship should be *Recommends*, as defined in the policy:

> This declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency.
> The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together with
> this one in all but unusual installations.

thanks.
