[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] owncloud package "Recommends" bloated?

[Nitzan Raz]

Hello
According to OwnCloud developers in this GitHub thread:
https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/6355
The package dependency metadata should be changed to something like:
```
Package: owncloud
Architecture: all
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, apache2 | httpd, php5, php5-mysqlnd |
php5-mysql, php5-pgsql, php5-sqlite, php5-common, php5-gd,
php-xml-parser, php5-intl, php5-mcrypt, php5-curl, ntp | time-daemon
Recommends: mysql-server | php5-sqlite, curl, php5-imagick, php-apc
Suggests: clamav | clamav-daemon, smbclient, libav-tools | ffmpeg, libreoffice
```
But I see the post was from 16-12-2013 and both the Ubuntu OC6 package
(which I'm 99% certain is ported from Debian), and the Debian
backports OC7 package has libreoffice under "Recommends", causing apt
to require 733MB on my server.
I assume you gentlemen are aware of this, and would like to hear the
reasons for not modifying the package dependencies.
Thank you for your time
