Thanks for such detailed reporting on your experiences with 
Debian-packaged Sugar.

As the things you've tested are not debian-packaged, there is no sane 
way to "fix" those dependency problems, however.

I do not want to stuff dependencies onto Sucrose packages to fulfill 
dependencies of nonpackaged software.


Hope that makes sense.  If not, feel free to try to talk sense into me 
:-)


Kind regards,

  - Jonas
