Bug#877770: Q: Why -doc package depends on tex?



Package: texlive-latex-extra-doc
Severity: minor

(Note: specified texlive-latex-extra-doc as package but probably this issue
would be applied to other texlive -doc packages, too)

Hi,

Question,

>Package: texlive-latex-extra-doc
>(snip)
>Depends: tex-common (>= 6), texlive-base (>= 2017.20170628)

Why -doc package **Depends** on tex? If it is exactly documentation package,
it should not depends on tex (just Recommends or Suggests is okay), IMO.

Could you explain why -doc depends on tex itself, please?
