As per comment 9, upstream has closed this bug. My mistake :P

They did however make the following comment

".... the packages are valid dependencies, as finch can link with X
 libraries for some of its optional features and libpurple can use D-Bus.
 Surely, however, most of those packages are only recommended and can be
 avoided by the use of `apt-get --no-install-recommends install finch`."

Perhaps this isn't a bug after all?
