*Sigh*.
I'd really love to see something a bit weaker than Requires. Suggested: or
Optional: to indicate that the package would like to have fast_cgi, but
doesn't need it.
That would be nice for rpm.
+1. Debian has this, and it makes a lot of sense for packages like atlas
that provide performance-optimized versions of libraries that already
exist in another package (blas and lapack, in this case). In many cases
users don't know about these libraries, and having suggested
dependencies would provide a way to
make users aware of their options.
