Package: python3-pygments Version: 2.3.1+dfsg-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have set APT::Install-Recommends to false and installed python3-pygments in order to use pygmentize. The package python3-pkg-resources was not installed due to the APT setting (which is fine). But the program pygmentize did not work without it. The output was: # pygmentize -h Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pygmentize", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources' After installing python3-pkg-resources pygmentize started to work normally. So I think the package python3-pkg-resources should be a dependency of python3-pygments, not only a recommendation. -nix -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.0.21-5-pve (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python3-pygments depends on: ii python3 3.7.3-1 Versions of packages python3-pygments recommends: ii python3-pkg-resources 40.8.0-1 Versions of packages python3-pygments suggests: pn python-pygments-doc <none> pn ttf-bitstream-vera <none> -- no debconf information
