as you may have read the documentation and used our suggested way to 
solve your problem by not installing the recommands automatically, our 
plan worked out.
Anyway ... if you would like to do the work to draft such a package 
split, you can send MRs via 
https://salsa.debian.org/nagios-team/pkg-nagios-plugins-contrib/, which 
would be very welcomed.


With kind regards, Jan.


I unfortunately will be unavailable for the next month.

also I'm still very much a beginner with debian packaging, so I'm not 
certain that I'll know exactly all of the details that need to be handled.


So I'm afraid that I unfortunately won't be able to push this forward 
for some time :\

Hi Garbiek,

Your suggestion is sensible, why don't you join the team and make it happen?

Kind Regards,

Bas
