Bug Description

Please change memtest86+ dependency, from "Depends" to "Recommends". It makes it easier to remove the memtest86+ package (and the unnecessary grub lines). I expect that a lot of people will agree with me, since I saw a lot of threads on forums asking for memtest86+ removal.

The dependency change will allow to the user/admin to remove memtest86+ and also keep the package ubuntu-standard, which is an important package, in case the admin decides to upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu.
