[Bug 933909] Re: Sync packagekit 0.7.2-4 (main) from Debian testing (main)

[Matthias Klumpp]

Okay, strange... It should really not pull in packagekit... Dropping
the Recommends is IMHO not a very good idea too, so I'll try to reach
pitti on IRC and ask why he removed the lines.
Than I'll report back.
