Package: python3-aiosmtplib Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hi,
python3-aiosmtplib issues a dependency on python3-uvloop, but it does work with the standard asyncio loop as well. The documentation also lists uvloop as "Provides-Extra". Since it is not strictly required, it probably should not be listed as Depends. I am attaching a patch lowering it to Recommends, but maybe Suggests is more appropriate here. Helmut
