But suppose in the future that libiconv3 is released, and libintl8 is
merely recompiled against libiconv3.  Then, if you have a direct
dependency on both (which some packages do), you are still okay (both
libraries are downloaded, because both are required); but if you only have
an indirect dependency on libiconv2 prior to the upgraded libintl8, you
are now making the user download libiconv2 even though it is completely
unnecessary.  In other words, it is nicer to list only direct
dependencies, rather than the transitive closure of all dependencies,
because the transitive closure can change over time without you doing
anything differently in your package.
