Package: xz-utils
Version: 5.1.1alpha+20120614-1
Severity: minor
Justification: policy ยง2.5
Tags: patch

Hi,

xz-utils has "Priority: required" but no pseudo-essential package
depends on it:

        $ grep-dctrl -sPackage -Fpriority required \
          -a -FDepends,Pre-Depends 'xz-utils' \
          </var/lib/cupt/lists/*_debian_dists_wheezy_main_binary-i386_Packages |
          wc -l
        0

The priority should be 'important' or lower as discussed at [1]
and [2].  This could help people building tiny systems to make
them smaller.  Patch attached.

Subject: debian/control: xz-utils is not pseudo-essential any more

Since dpkg 1.16.4~6 (libdpkg: Add liblzma compression support,
2012-06-07), the xz command is no longer needed in a minimal Debian
system.

Based on its list of reverse-dependencies, it is even safe to lower
the priority to optional.  Let's make it "standard", since it is not
part of the traditional Unix toolset but is a useful component even in
reasonably small character-mode systems.
