Title:
  Please change depends: jsmath to recommends:jsmath

Status in “jsmath-fonts” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  jsmath-fonts currently depends on jsmath.
  jsmath is a package intended strictly for servers which will provide jsmath support.
  However, jsmath-fonts is very handy for installing on computers which will access jsmath-based sites, as jsmath generates bitmap fonts in the absence of these fonts.

  For these reasons, please change 
  Depends: jsmath  to
  Recommends: jsmath

  It may also make sense to add 
  Enhances: firefox, rekonq, konqueror, seamonkey-browser
  since it enhances the performance of Javascript-capable browsers when viewing jsmath sites.

  Reporting from system:

  Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
  Release:	10.04
  jsmath-fonts:
    Installed: 1.3-2
    Candidate: 1.3-2
    Version table:
   *** 1.3-2 0
          500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  It looks like this affects current versions as well, according to
  packages.ubuntu.com/natty/jsmath-fonts.
