Ah, interesting question.

This is intentional, but hopefully there's a cleaner way to do it.
A user installing 'dfarc', the front-end, will want to install freedink as
well. Similarly, somebody installing 'freedink' will want to install the
front-end to play extensions or start the game in windowed mode (for example).

Typically, the engine and the frontend are shipped in the same .exe installer
in the ms windows version. Still, they are  developped independently, so they
are provided as 2 separate packages for GNU/Linux.

In the Debian packaging I used the Recommends: field, which is not a hard
dependency, but it is treated as a dependency on desktop systems.

What would you recommend to do?
