Bug#520844: evince: ghostscript as a recommends

package: evince
severity: wishlist

it seems like ghostscript support in evince is a bonus feature (rather
a core component).  it would be nice if the libgs8 dependency were
treated as recommends instead of a depends.  this is especially poignant
since i like to remove vulnerable packages from my system (right now
there are known unpatched security flaws with the ghostscript
packages), but i can't since its an evince depends.

thank you for your consideration.
