Package: pcmanfm-qt
Version: 0.13.0-2
Severity: important
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512
I am looking at lightweight desktop environments for Debian, and would
expect LXQt to fit the bill.
I am therefore surprised to discover that pcman-qt indirectly depends on
GTK+ libraries.
- From a quick look, it seems that libfm-qt5 is supposed to be the
equivalent of libfm4, yet pcmanfm-qt depends on both of those, making it
impossible to install pcman-qt without _both_ Qt and GTK+ libraries,
effectively rendering LXQt less lightweight (by some measures) than XFCE
which I suspect was not at all intended.
I have raised severity to important, since I believe this affects a core
feature of the LXQt destop environment.

Thank you for clarify your pov - but that doesn't change nothing - maybe
i wasn't clear enough about: pcmanfm-qt 0.13.0 uses parts of libfm - and
the libfm-modules are used by pcmanfm-qt (gvfs and other functionality).
If you would have a look into salsa/pcmanfm-qt you will notice that i
moved libfm-modules from Recommends to Depends a year ago - i tested the
manager with apt install pcmanfm-qt --no-install-recommends and
pcmanfm-qt refused to start :) - so the modules are a real dependency.
As i wrote: We will not depend on libfm in the next version of
pcmanfm-qt directly anymore. Certainly we still will depend on
menu-cached that will throw in some libfm things - but i guess that the
dependency to libfm-modules will be gone in 0.14.0.
Disclaimer: This was written not with my Debian Maintainer Hat on - this
was written as a member of the LXQt core team and LXQt release manager.
Cheers Alf
