Package: xbmc
Version: 2:12.0~git20130127.fb595f2-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi, Andres.

Can you drop the depends on ttf-liberation to fonts-liberation in a next
upload?

It perhaps may be the case of even lowering that to a recommends, as the
user may have installed the microsoft fonts on their own systems (e.g. with
the package provided by debian or from http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/).

With a recommends, the system will automatically pull in the package by
default and those users that want to shoot themselves on their foot (read:
me) can choose to do so.


Thanks for keeping xbmc in Debian, BTW.
