Description Wolfgang Müller 2017-01-01 20:58:42 UTC
nullmailer erroneously has groff as a build-time dependency even though the formatter is not needed to build the package.

Grepping the nullmailer source (both stable and current ~amd64 versions) for roff results in only one line in doc/Makefile.in: NROFF = nroff

NROFF is not used anywhere else in the project, and the groff DEPEND can therefore be removed.
