--- Begin Message ---package: debhelper version: 4.2.10 severity: wishlist Hello, dh_shlibdeps doesn't have an option to exclude certain packages from the dependency list it generates with ${shlibs:Depends}. This is a quite different feature from the current -X option, if I've read it correctly. One example of where this would be useful is kopete, which currently depends on xmms, libgtk, etc. because it is compiled with "Now Playing with XMMS" support. Yet Kopete will still function without the presence of XMMS, and it would be great if xmms, gtk, etc. could be manually excluded from the dependency list (so they could be added as Recommends or Suggests instead - it might also be handy if dh_shlibdeps could print to the console the version information of the dependencies it otherwise would have added, so the maintainer can ensure that their manually added Suggests or whatever are correct). Thanks, Christopher Martin
