Bug Description
When installing the package slic3r (sudo apt-get install slic3r), the following package are required but are not installed:
libwx-perl
libopengl-perl
libwx-glcanvas-perl
I had to install them manually in order to be able to launch slic3r.

In fact, those "missing" packages are in the "recommended" section of slic3r.
However, as this package is installing an icon within the Desktop menu, this icon is not launching anything unless those dependencies are installed.
So, I see some possible solutions:
- either split the slice3r package in a slic3r-cli and a slic3r-gui package, with appropriate dependencies.
- Do not install a Desktop menu icon with the package
- Add those dependencies within the required dependencies list.
