Hi again. :-)

Just for the records, I'm thinking about the following:
 - Depends: is too strong.
 - Suggests: is too weak.
 - Recommends: allows users to get by default the other package, but
   they are still able not to install it if they know they don't need
   it, by manually “breaking” the Recommends.

As for the description, the usual sentences could be used:
  “This package contains the User Interface.”
  “This package contains the rendering engine.”

Waiting for Paul's comments before applying to SVN trunk.

Cheers,
