My opinion is that if the user uses sudo, so

But if sudo is installed "involuntarily", due to tdelibs dependency,
sudo is not configured and is therefore useless. In such case, tdelibs
dependency on sudo is unnecessary.
Somehow I miss a case where this dependency is useful :)
Yes, I agree - there is no dependency per default and if user takes
tdesudo it would pull sudo as dependency, but otherwise I would leave it
as it is. As it was already stated this is optional package on purpose.
The problem is that the current state is that the package tdelibs14-trinity
on Debian and Ubuntu has *depends* on sudo == sudo is *always installed*,
although it is not used and the user *cannot remove* it.
That's why I *do not want* to leave the current state unchanged.
