Lintian tag: depends-on-metapackage

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

This package is one of the packages that Lintian believes is a
metapackage: a package that exists for the convenience of users or
installers to install a set of related packages. Packages that are not
themselves metapackages must not depend on metapackages, since this may
prevent the user from removing portions of the package set they don't
need.
