Hi,

My upgraded Jessie machines still have the at command installed by default, my 
new Stretch machines do not have it.
I just wanted to install at and noticed it has A LOT of required parts that I 
do not understand. Why does it want to install 19 packages like exim4-base and 
mysql-common?
Is all of that really necessary to get the at command up and running? Should 
some of them maybe get moved over to "Suggested packages"?
