Package: iodine
Version: 0.7.0-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
from #debian-mentors:
<maker> hi. there's this debian package called iodine, and there's this file in
it, /usr/sbin/iodine-client-start.
<maker> The executable above assumes the existence of ipcalc, available in the
eponymous package. However, it is listed in the "Suggested" field of
iodine, not as a dependency. is this a bug?
<deki> yes

There was no interaction in this bug for years, and I still believe
the current situation is fine, hence closing this bug.
