Bug#326202: Dropping gnucash from gnome-office

[Loïc Minier]

Package: gnome-office
Version: 1:2.10.1.1
Severity: wishlist

        Hi,

 gnome-office Recommends gnucash and this has the effect of pulling the
 whole GNOME 1.4 suite for people installing gnome-office.  (44.7 MB and
 43 packages.)

 I think this is too heavy a requirement for most users.  There are
 other programs to do the job, and gnucash can't claim to be better
 integrated into GNOME.

 Hence, I propose the removal of the Recommends from gnome-office.  A
 Suggests might replace it.

 I'm Cc:ing debian-gtk-gnome@ for other people to share their thoughts.

   Bye,
