One may argue that by default, you may not want to install EITHER
nagios3 OR icinga. There are only two files installed by this package,
and the Recommends field coupled with the defaults installation of all
such pacakges and their dependencies carries a rather heavy burden for
something rather self-contained.

Arguably, it is unlikely that you may want to run the check_nrpe plugin
without nagios3 or icinga, but it is also equally unlikely that someone
who is running nagios or icinga3 hasn't already installed these packages
in addition to the nagios-nrpe-plugin package.
