Package: gettext
Version: 1.0-3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

gettext 1.0 [1] includes two new programs 'spit' and 'msgpre' which
require the 'requests' python module installed, available as part of the
'python3-requests' package. In my opinion, the utilities should be split
into a different package or the python module should be added as a
dependency.
