Package: cherokee Version: 1.2.2-2 Severity: normal
Cherokee has a Depends on logrotate. Assuming cherokee only uses logrotate to rotate it's logs, cherokee should work fine without it, although doing so is unusual as your disk would fill up pretty quickly. According to the DPM, this is precisely the purpose of Recommends - to enable configurations which are possible and functional however unusual. The reason is that I have a system which I am trying to keep absolutely minimal, and there is a webserver on there which will only be accessed occasionally (ie. it's not public). For this reason I've told APT not to treat Recommends as a Depends. Installing cherokee still brings with it logrotate, which in turn brings cron and a whole bunch of other stuff I otherwise wont need. Therefore, I think cherokee should Recommends logrotate instead of Depends.
