--- Begin Message ---Source: metacity Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 metacity recommends "gnome-session | x-session-manager". Package relations are directional: It is unusual to install a session- manager without a window-manager, but the opposite is not unusual. Concretely, library parts of Sugar require metacity, and currently installing develpment tools for building Sugar activities _without_ also installing a fullblown Sugar environment pulls in ~100MB of GNOME, depending on what was already on that system. Please stop recommending a session-manager altogether, or if you insist on that arguably reverse relation making sense then at least lower it to only a suggestion.

This is fixed in a version I uploaded to experimental today: metacity (1:3.25.2-2) experimental; urgency=medium * Drop useless recommends on gnome-session | x-session-manager. * Backport upstream fix to make window shortcuts working again. -- Dmitry Shachnev <[email protected]> Thu, 13 Jul 2017 15:29:28 +0300 Unfortunately I did not notice that this bug exists, so did not add a closes: statement to the changelog. -- Dmitry Shachnev
