Note that this time I have already done everything in the Debian GIT

Just a little more change: the cups-filters package needs to depend on
imagemagick (>= 6.4~) to be able to convert images to braille dots, and
on liblouisutdml-bin, antiword, docx2txt, poppler-utils to be able to
convert documents.
Thanks,

Samuel, thank you for the hint.
I have now added poppler-utils, ImageMagick, and liblouisutdml-bin to
the hard dependencies of cups-filters, as these are enough to use the
Braille drivers in the normal desktop use case, where files are printer
from applications. Applications usually send only PDF when printing,
CUPS usually accepts also images and plain text which is also covered by
these.
antiword and docx2txt I have added to Suggests:, they are only needed to
convert MS Word documents.
I have also looked into the Debian package of liblouisutdml-bin and
found out that it also depends on antiword and ooo2dbk but I wonder why,
as there is no reference to these in any non-documentation file of the
liblouisutdml source package. For a standard peinting workflow where
usually PDF, sometimes plain text or images are sent, these dependencies
could be moved to Suggests:, so that I can sync the package from Ubuntu
without needing to get antiword and ooo2dbk into the standard
installation. Samuel, as you seem to be the maintainer of
liblouisutdml-bin, can you do so? Thanks.
Till
