[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Bug#1004375: onionshare: Please consider demoting dependency on obfs4proxy to Recommends

[intrigeri]

Package: onionshare
Version: 2.2-3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

onionshare currently Depends: obfs4proxy.

But at least recent versions of OnionShare (I did not check which ones
exactly) have code to cope just fine when obfs4proxy is not available,
so "Depends" seems a bit too strong here and it sounds like
"Recommends" would do the job just fine.

Why does this matter to me? Tails would like to keep installing
onionshare from Debian without pulling obfs4proxy from Debian.
Currently we work around this somewhat overzealous dependency
via an equivs-generated package but it would be nice to get rid of
this hack :)

Thanks for maintaining onionshare in Debian,
cheers!
