[Pkg-tcltk-devel] Bug#601591: tk8.4: Should not recommend xterm

[Samuel Thibault]

Package: tk8.4
Version: 8.4.19-4
Severity: important

Hello,

ATM tk8.4 recommends xterm. Now that squeeze installs recommends by
default, that automatically pulls quite a bit of x11 (x11-utils, libgl1,
libxft, etc. etc.), while I don't see why tk8.4 should recommend xterm.
Could this be lowered to suggest?

Samuel
