Package: python-flup
Version: 1.0.2-2
Severity: normal

python-flup declares a "Recommends" dependency on python-webpy.
according to policy,

    Recommends

    This declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency.

    The Recommends field should list packages that would be found
    together with this one in all but unusual installations.

i can't think of a particularly good reason that python-flup would
declare a dependency on python-webpy (or, indeed, any of the other
numerous python web frameworks packaged in debian), or that python-webpy
would be found in "all but unusual installations" of python-flup.

with apt defaulting to installing Recommended packages, this results in
a somewhat long list of extra packages installed that aren't really
necessary.

compare:
