    It is urlview and only meant as an example...

Recommends: www-browser
Suggests: mutt, ncftp
Description: Extracts URLs from text
 This utility is used to extract URL from text files, especially from mail
 messages in order to launch some browser to view them. This used to be a
 part of mutt but has now become an independent tool.

    I think the suggestion is fine.  I do remember it asking me about ncftp
all the time but here it is a suggest so maybe it was changed recently or I
was smoking crack all those upgrades.  

    Ah, just tried it on a Hamm system which also has ncftp as as suggest. 
The thing is the www-broswer as a recommend brings up (I think) the dialog
and everything in the dialog (mutt, mutt-i and ncftp) are suggests.

    So this may be a different issue completely as it should recommend
"ftp-client" (if such a thing exists) instead of a particular ftp client.
