Bug#737497: postgis: Please add dependency “Suggests: postgis-doc”

2014-02-02 Thread Ben Finney
Package: postgis
Version: 2.1.1-5
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Administrating PostGIS requires understanding how it works and what it
does. Please set a “Suggests: postgis-doc” dependency, so that
administrators choosing to install ‘postgis’ will receive the suggestion.
