It is an eternal question. :-) Should installing the package “python-foo” or “r-bar” also install the package “python” or the package “r-minimal”? Well, the answer seems being: it is up to the user.

Therefore, I do not think it can be considered as a bug. > Installing this also masks a local installation of git > masked when running in a foreign distro.
