--- Comment #4 from Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
perl-IO-Socket-SSL has a dependency on perl(URI) for public suffix list
support. Whilst URI is the preferred back-end for this, it could also use
Net::IDN::Encode or Net::LibIDN + Encode, which might be lighter weight
options.

perl-URI requires Business::ISBN for ISBN (RFC 3187) support. Again, it's an
optional dependency. That's what's pulling in the graphics deps, as mentioned
by Petr.

We could make any or all of these weak deps but it wouldn't help the default
case where weak deps are enabled.

I suspect the best option would be to downgrade the perl(URI) dependency in
perl-IO-Socket-SSL to Suggests: and add a Recommends: perl(Net::IDN::Encode),
which wouldn't pull in the graphical deps and Mojolicious.
