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.
