Comment 0 for bug 1740637

gir1.2-appindicator-0.1 has no reverse dependencies (it is for gtk2 GObject Introspection)

After removals are processed for other reasons, there are only 2 packages that recommend python-appindicator. It would be trivial to drop the recommends. Those 2 packages (deluge and gtk-recordmydesktop) are scheduled for autoremoval from Debian Testing in February because they use pygtk.

$ reverse-depends python-appindicator
Reverse-Recommends
==================
* deluge-gtk
* gpodder — should be fixed once 3.10.0 is packaged
* gtk-recordmydesktop
* sbackup-gtk — RM requested in LP: #1739800
* winswitch — RM requested in LP: #1739797
