Details

Description:

libtiger is listed both in requirements ("Depends on") and in optional packages ("Optional Deps").

This looks odd and is misleading. I tried to uninstall that optional dep for which I had no need, but of course it failed.

Additional info:
* 3.0.1-2
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
* Install vlc and check package list
