[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#485469: nagios3-common: can dependencies be relaxed?

[Marc Haber]

Package: nagios3-common
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

it would probably be nice to have nagios3-common not depending on
mailx (which pulls in an MTA) and apache2-utils (which pulls in a
number of apache-related libraries).

Please consider adapting the scripts so that they don't fail if
apache2-utils and/or mailx are missing (optionally printing warnings)
so that the dependencies can be relaxed to a recommends.

Greetings
Marc
