Control: tags 637006 + moreinfo Hi,
What's taking a lot of the size of asciidoc installation is mainly the latex packages. You have 2 dependencies using latex: - dblatex (387MB with its dependencies): This package is required to generate pdf files which is one of the main features of the tool. But this generation of PDF can also be done by FOP, so dblatex is not required per say. - docbook-utils (259MB with its dependencies): This package converts DocBook files to other formats (HTML, RTF, PS, man, PDF) which is the core of asciidoc. For me, this dependency should NOT be removed. The other recommended packages are libxml2-utils (less than 2MB with its deps) and xmlto (22.4MB with its deps) which, in my mind, should not be removed from there. Note that both of these packages have common dependencies so moving dblatex from recommended to suggested would not remove all of the 387MB and would remove one of the main features of the tool. I personally think that this is a bad idea to move the current recommended to suggested. Do maintainers agree with that? Should it be tagged as wontfix?
