Bug Description

Binary package hint: fretsonfire

I'm glad that Ubuntu Maverick has Frets on Fire in repositories. But what bothers me the most is that it forces me to download all of the song packs (namely fretsonfire-songs-sectoid and fretsonfire-songs-muldjord). To worsen things up, the Sectoid pack contains copyrighted music (I want to leave it as clean as possible). There is also a FoFiX package, but the song packs have Frets on Fire as a dependency, so I can't just install FoFiX and a song pack. My suggestion is the following:
* Make fretsonfire-songs-* a recommended set of packages instead of dependencies (songs can be manually added after all)
* Make fofix an alternate package dependence for fretsonfire-songs-*
