Package: gdebi
Version: 0.9.5.7+nmu4
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Using Devuan without policykit, the package gdebi can't be installed. However
it is not a strong dependency, as I remove this dependency from the deb
and it works fine for more than 2 years.

So policykit-1 could be only Recommended.
