Title:
  quantal debdiff supplied: Demote gnome-control-center to Suggests to
  not force desktops without g-c-c to import it

Status in “mousetweaks” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Mousetweaks is a package providing accessibility enhancements for the
  mouse. It is essentially a daemon providing a dwell click and a
  simulated secondary click. In Ubuntu, the gnome-control-center
  provides the gui to control its features, but the mousetweaks features
  also work without the gnome-control-center. There is for example the
  onscreen keyboard Onboard, shipping by default with Ubuntu, that
  offers a gui for the dwelling feature of mousetweaks. Moreover,
  mousetweaks can be controlled by the command line.

  Thus, I would suggest to demote the gnome-control-center from
  Recommends to Suggests in debian control. This way, Ubuntu derivatives
  with a desktop without the gnome-control-center (for example Xubuntu)
  might install mousetweaks without also pulling in the gnome-control-
  center and its dependencies.

  I am adding the debdiff and the package with the changes to this bug
  thread.

  In the hope to have been helpful,

  Francesco
