Package: esnacc-doc
Version: 1.8.1-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   `apt install libesnacc-dev` in an up-to-date bullseye chroot.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   evince with a whole heap of GUI-related dependencies would be pulled
   in in a build chroot.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   Installation of libesnacc-dev and libesnacc180 only, which can be achieved
   using apt flag `--no-install-recommends`.

I would propose dropping evince from "Recommends:" and possibly adding
pdf-viewer to "Suggests:" to prevent a development package from pulling in a
specific PDF viewer by default.
