Bug#462316: libsoap-lite-perl: Please do not depend on libmime-lite-perl

Package: libsoap-lite-perl
Version: 0.70.04-1
Severity: normal
libsoap-lite-perl depends on libmime-lite-perl for use as an SMTP
client. However, libsoap-lite-perl only needs libmime-lite-perl for
the MAILTO transport, and works perfectly well for other transports
without libmime-lite-perl installed.
Furthermore, pulling in libmime-lite-perl currently pulls in an MTA
(bug 462314), exacerbating the impact of this dependency.
Please downgrade this dependency to a suggestion.
