pastebinit is in depends and that is why it is not installable.

In Debian policy different relationships between packages are defined beautifully -

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html

Could we move the dependency to suggests perhaps or do you think it is very important/necessary without which the package cannot work.

No program pastebinit off the main functions in the i-nex.

Previously pastebinit it integrated in the i-nex. Now I do not, because most distributions have it in the repository.

That is fine, what I meant to tell/share is that it's not told/written anywhere. At the very least, it should be mentioned in the Readme.md specifically for the ubuntu build -

nstalling dependencies:

sudo apt-get install \
debhelper devscripts pkg-config dpkg-dev \
lsb-release gambas3-dev gambas3-gb-image gambas3-gb-qt5 gambas3-gb-form gambas3-gb-desktop \
gambas3-gb-form-stock git pastebinit 

Just add that word and it should be easier for a newbie to know what is to be done.
