Dear maintainer(s),

I noticed that package polyglot recommends fruit, which is currently not
available in unstable.

See:

- https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/fruit

It's only available in old-old-stable (so, fruit has not been in a
stable release for two full versions).

It was removed due to a license issue I see:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1014187

polyglot should stop recommending fruit, since it's not available in
unstable for a long time.

Thank you for your time,
