[Pkg-lyx-devel] Bug#499629: Is it possible to move the -doc packages in texlive-latex-extra to Suggests?

[Sven Hoexter]

Hi,
we're currently suggesting texlive-latex-extra for LyX but with the latest
version the LyX the documentation requires parts of texlive-latex-extra to
work.

We're now considering to at least Recommend texlive-latex-extra but that
would get most people to pull in the 76MB texlive-latex-extra-doc aswell
since apt and aptitude pull in recommends automatically these days.
This is a bit unfortunate even today with broadband internet and cheap
disks.

Is there a special reason for you to recommend the -doc package?
Similar problem with other packages from texlive-extra but there the -doc
packages are not that big. Do you see a chance to move the -doc packages
down to suggests?
