Public bug reported:

cups-filters 1.28.11-1 now recommends lynx for a braille convert to HTML
feature.

lynx is in universe and it's not allowed for packages in main to
recommend packages in universe.

Suggestions
-----------
1. We could just lower it to a Suggests since this might not be a feature we 
need to enable by default. (You can look at the file-roller for an example of 
how to tweak dependencies for Ubuntu but still keep the packaging in sync with 
Debian)

2. If it is acceptable to install w3m by default, maybe this feature
could be updated to use w3m instead. This may be worth doing even if we
lower the dependency to a Suggests. I suggest reaching out to the Debian
Accessibility Team member Samuel Thibault since it looks like this is
his code.
