Public bug reported:
openssh-client is in the standard seed. It recommends xauth, which as of
intrepid pulls the following packages in a basic server install :
xauth
|- libxext6
|- libxmuu1
|- x11-common
It would pull even more if there wasn't already another Recommend bug in
the minimal seed that pulled other X libraries (see bug 270500).
Server systems do pretty well without those packages installed by
default.
Solution: drop the xauth "Recommends" and make it a "Suggests" instead.
Note that xauth gets pulled in in desktop installs through a xorg
Depends, and that in Hardy xauth wasn't in the standard seed.
** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

openssh-client could suggest xauth rather than recommend it
