Version: 2.1.0-2.1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 2.5

Hi,

currently openjpeg2 and all of its binaries have the priority extra.
On the other hand, at least the library is used by other binaries with
an higher priority -- for example, by gdal and ghostscript.

According to Policy ยง2.5, at least libopenjp2-7 should be optional.
Attached there is a patch for bumping the priority to optional to all
the binaries except the debug symbols, as it is usually done by other
sources.

(Note that after an upload of this, you will also need to file a bug
against ftp.debian.org to adjust on ftp-master side the priorities of
the binaries.)

Thanks,
