As not all plugins are needed by everyone, hard dependencies of plugins enabled by default are listed in the Recommends field of the package and dependencies of plugins disabled by default or optional dependencies of single plugins are listed in the Suggests field -- as common with many "collection" style Debian packages. The dependencies of each plugin are listed above in parentheses.
