Hello, the reason for this is that if there is not at least one soundfont package automatically installed, bugs like "timidity doesn't work" keep popping up. Also it is the same approach as used in ubuntu, giving users less surprise. $ apt-cache show fluid-soundfont-gm | grep Size Installed-Size: 145368 Size: 118557552 $ apt-cache show freepats | grep Size Installed-Size: 33224 Size: 28968538 I could consider moving the depends to fluid-soundfont-gm, however it is a lot bigger. If you have other ideas how to approach, I'm open for suggestions.
