Package: print-manager Version: 4:4.13.3-1 Severity: wishlist
Starting with 4.13.3-1, print-manager recommends system-config-printer, following a request made in #751966. According to the reporter, print-manager users have good reasons to install system-config-printer and system-config-printer-udev. However, while both system-config-printer and system-config-printer-udev are quite small, system-config-printer has a considerable set of dependencies. On my not-so-GTK-free testing install, upgrading print-manager would cause 18 MB more of disk usage (following 5 MB of download). According to #851966, print-manager should recommend system-config-printer-udev and system-config-printer separately. The former has a lot less dependencies and is an entirely reasonable dependency. We should then try to provide print-manager with what it needs from system-config-printer without resorting to a dependency on system-config-printer. At first sight, it would seem possible to split the D-Bus service from system-config-printer. -- Filipus Klutiero http://www.philippecloutier.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
