Package: bison
Version: 2:3.8.2+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

I think that when beginners install Bison to use as yacc, they expect to
find the Bison/yacc library installed as well. Even if it's not suited
for Recommends, it would be nice to have libbison-dev in the Suggests,
so that libbison-dev may be marked automatically installed and
potentially autoremovable when Bison is removed.
