Package: src:sympy Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The spyder IDE recommends the installation of sympy, but is yet to be enabled in the Debian packages. Adding python[,3]-sympy to Recommends makes the installation jump from a couple 100MB to 2GB, which is uncomfortably high. Indeed, the chain of Recommends would transitively pulls a significant number of packages, some of which should probably be downgraded to Suggests to help reduce the installation size of spyder[,3], such as: - The documentation package: python-sympy-doc, - The isympy[,3] console scripts, - The texlive stuff and dvipng. What are your thoughts?
