--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-core Version: 1:3.22+12 Severity: normal Hi, investigating, why anacron is installed on my system, it seems to be pulled in via Recommends of gnome-core and task-desktop. Looking for the original reason, why anacron was added, I found: meta-gnome3 (1:3.8+7) unstable; urgency=medium [ Josselin Mouette ] * gnome-core recommends anacron, because some of the GNOME packages go» to the brink of unusability if nothing rotate logs. The changelog for tasksel is not particularly helpful: tasksel (2.58) unstable; urgency=low [ Per Olofsson ] * Add anacron to desktop task. Regarding log rotation: nowadays, logrotate ships a native .timer unit, which handles this task in a much better way then anacron. Basically, all the important tasks afaics ship a native .timer unit besides the legacy cron jobs, so we don't really need anacron anymore to properly support systems which aren't running 24/7. I therefor think we should consider dropping anacron from both meta-packages, to have one less (useless) daemon installed by default. Thoughts, comments, concerns?

[ Simon McVittie ] * Set Rules-Requires-Root to no * Exclude gjs apps on s390x. These apps are not available there. * Allow gnome-flashback instead of -session and -shell on s390x. s390x doesn't have a working version of gjs, and GNOME Shell needs gjs, so we can't have the GNOME desktop there; install the most closely-related desktop we can instead. * Allow lightdm as an alternative to gdm3 on s390x. gdm3's greeter (login prompt) is GNOME Shell with a special configuration, so it needs gjs. * Revert "Build-Depends on gjs" Checksums-Sha1: c7fc06baedd60b361ba71ddfe63c4f3bc4ef8a9d 2010 meta-gnome3_3.30+1.dsc 777400e7afc1fa773bccec24af1f98ac32556a86 24796 meta-gnome3_3.30+1.tar.xz a737449b1b8810b45a89026fb28669bca9bbcfca 5065 meta-gnome3_3.30+1_source.buildinfo Checksums-Sha256: 7bf2d66bc2974717fe5e55d662f0e3f07f41113a9b88b46d62e609d8e1802a1a 2010 meta-gnome3_3.30+1.dsc b00dfed0195b069f79d882194ae746c2a5226b15b25f3492eb5921289341329c 24796 meta-gnome3_3.30+1.tar.xz b14c3380d72367b9b134d6ab1f0305f2a65b3d622f288d775a933c9d217b6f50 5065 meta-gnome3_3.30+1_source.buildinfo Files: 75d9de185867a8d99849ba2b3a8a1df5 2010 metapackages optional meta-gnome3_3.30+1.dsc 1eeb3762a602c499221940446e915c08 24796 metapackages optional meta-gnome3_3.30+1.tar.xz f8c24c31e4c8a8db4563dce4c4fb34b4 5065 metapackages optional meta-gnome3_3.30+1_source.buildinfo -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEENuxaZEik9e95vv6Y4FrhR4+BTE8FAlx71JoACgkQ4FrhR4+B TE94dRAAkgn9CTkcoaRVF40SX+mOhyt215osFA03/e2mtjxnZ+sAmrGrPFYgC9eT t57V9nuLjOrOdbY98p1Cfxdz2PhWDMVXu+XNmn6Y3eFyOKtkK0mTRM2QjZkaTJ5E 0Fe1/qGMFtpTSiJq4K9BxXU3ODM6hX11HvR9M3ytz1ajRCi76oh0iY9J51IYc6Kq 20Cn9OLT/CLrK+GpHnSdcyJElwTZ+yAF4FI5Gu48Sf2MmeSqgZGrovvFtvK25Uuv 3re9MBmRWGtfqjipepSkXvgbwdbMKf30ogXYeuMWAh08yLX++JgNlUo+SeSeFuR4 AMumW4noKqS0sG4si78frbbtW3WK2Kg7lV8rvhIzC7mNSg8871uirP9Fij/e/p6L yLTtT/ri8Ykp375szaqIPrgGV8jDIAEE/9UnJ3h7VSAmd0BTVox9W7K4yQmPoGm7 2BImE+WB2gVJU1RUw+rLB5jburITaXZR9eEcCN7s1lGUc/du9O/jXEadjSCHqiZn DkWCkL3aahRT6j4WXn14nn5X/ex/g3FoYmH4vETY0EAnKb59Qn1h2dCguGGt4aML tDRjklSUT4FcI7jvPP+eQWBqD0+Vufa1ui+xDh/nJljJv27Ij+ieKvbEbUY9dTuQ RHT4JLa4B5QOZO+WLIruHBafABXynUn9AjgYRDA/bV1XndAEg+k= =9y8I -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
