isenkram-lookup suggests gkrellm-thinkbat but I don't use gkrellm.

isenkram-lookup suggests tpb but I use GNOME, which already supports
the feature set of tpb.

While I agree that this is unfortunate, I have no idea how to avoid it
without teaching isenkram about all packages and their relationship in
Debian, a feature I believe isenkram should not have.

Anyone got any ideas how to use the existing metadata in the package
archive to do better choices?

That seems reasonable.
fact that I don't have the dependencies installed should be enough to
rule it out. Some plugins might use Enhances instead of Depends.

$ apt-cache show gkrellm-thinkbat | grep -o 'role::[^ ,]*'
role::plugin
role::program
$ apt-cache show gkrellm-thinkbat | grep Depends
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7), gkrellm (>= 2.0.0)

I cannot think of any straight-forward way to avoid the tpb suggestion,
a more complicated way might be to demote things not using the same
uitoolkit:: tag as my current desktop, but there would still not be any
way to know that tpb provides the same functionality as my desktop.

I came across this AppStream XML example today, and it reminded me of
this request.

  <component type="addon">
    <id>org.kde.wacomtablet</id>
    <extends>org.kde.systemsettings</extends>
    <extends>org.kde.kded</extends>
    [...]
  </component>

Perhaps isenkram can be extended to use <extends> information to only
propose components of type "addon" if the system it extends is
installed?   An idea to explore later, I guess.  I am not sure if the
information is easily available for the isenkram client code.

(Sorry about the earlier email sent while editing by mistake)

That sounds like it could work.
