This package recommends
1) x11-common or xfree86-common
to provide the X11 color name database. Without one of these
packages, background colors can only be specfied numerically.
2) mime-support
to provide /etc/mailcap. Without this package, xcfview will work
only for users who have written a .mailcap file in their home
directory.
3) One of several packages that provide a viewer for PNG or PPM files.
Such a viewer is necessary for xcfview to work. The recommended
packages all register the viewer in /etc/mailcap. There are also a
number of image viewers in Debian that do not register themselves
in /etc/mailcap; you can use one of these instead of the recommended
ones if you write a definition for image/png or image/x-portable-pixmap
in the user section of /etc/mailcap. Afterwards you may want to file
a "wishlist" bug report for the image viewer to supply its own
mailcap line.
Conversely, if you find a viewer in Debian that does register itself
in /etc/mailcap but does not appear in the recommendation list of
"unstable" xcftools, please file a "wishlist" bug to have it added.
