Package: libasio-dev
Version: 1:1.10.6-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

libasio-dev depends on libboost-date-time-dev and libboost-dev, but according
to asio's website:
http://think-
async.com/Asio/AsioAndBoostAsio?skin=clean.nat%2casio%2cpattern#What_are_the_differences_in_the
"Asio can be used independently of Boost by defining ASIO_STANDALONE when you
compile."

I use asio-devel with the ASIO_STANDALONE configuration, and it works quite
well.

Would you consider changing the dependencies to recommendations?
