hehe, yeah, and it doesn't really matter since it's debian and the
dependencies are all automatic.. and most of the time only tcl/tk gets
installed because everything else is already there...
about docker, I think it's an old dependency that they never removed.. and
python.. is because we have a small python script in there for sorting the
language files alphabetically, it's really just an internal tool for
developers to 'clean' the language files once a year... but I guess the
debian maintainer who created the package, just do a 'find | grep py', found
a result and added python as a dependency... but yes, it's completely
useless...
anyways, not a big deal, just quite informative and nice! :)
