Package: bsdmainutils
Version: 12.1.7
Severity: important

Hello,

In 257885db82a3 ("Split calendar into its own package") the calendar
package was split out from the bsdmainutils package into its own package
to save some room since the bsdmainutils is priority important, the
former suggesting the latter. But a898abc6e8e5 ("Make bsdmainutils a
transitional package.") later turned the suggestion into a dependency,
so that calender does get installed.

The problem is that calendar depends on cpp, and thus in the end the
base install of Debian bullseye installs cpp, which uses 30MB, just for
a calendar that was supposed not to be installed by default, I don't
think we want this :)

Could you make bsdmainutils back to only suggesting calendar, like it
used to?

Samuel
