Greetings!

"libcupsimage2-dev" current has the following dependencies

 * libjpeg-dev
 * libpng-dev
 * libtiff-dev
 * zlib1g-dev

... which are neither required during compile-time nor runtime for applications that depend on this library. "/usr/include/cups/raster.h" (the only header file provided by this package) makes no use of these dependencies.

Hence, could these dependencies be made optional ("recommends" or "suggests") in future versions such that the dependency chains remain short?

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards
