Package: enigmail-locale-pt-br
Version: 0.9x-20060108-1.1
Severity: normal
Hi!
# aptitude install icedove icedove-locale-pt-br enigmail
(...)
The following NEW packages will be installed:
enigmail icedove icedove-locale-pt-br
This is right. But when also installing enigmail-locale-pt-br:
# aptitude install icedove icedove-locale-pt-br enigmail enigmail-locale-pt-br
--without-recommends
(...)
The following NEW packages will be installed:
enigmail enigmail-locale-pt-br icedove icedove-locale-pt-br libnspr4
mozilla-browser mozilla-locale-ptbr
So enigmail-locale-pt-br is making mozilla-browser being installed and I
don't want it to be installed (since it's not necessary).
(Using apt-get I get the same result, so it's not a problem with
aptitude)
Thank you!
Best regards,
Nelson

Hello,
This "bug" is due to the fact that the old (0.9x-20060108-1)
enigmail-locale-pt-br package could be used with either (or both)
mozilla-locale-ptbr or mozilla-thunderbird-locale-pt-br. Thus
enigmail-locale-pt-br (correctly) depends on mozilla-locale-ptbr or
mozilla-thunderbird-locale-pt-br, I guess neither of these are installed
on your system ? Aptitude then tries to fulfil the dependencies by
installing the first of these, mozilla-locale-ptbr, which correctly
depends on mozilla-browser. If you were to manually instruct aptitude to
install mozilla-thunderbird-locale-pt-br (which is just a transitional
package depending on icedove locale-pt-br) as well, mozilla-browser
wouldn't be installed;
aptitude install icedove icedove-locale-pt-br enigmail enigmail-locale-pt-br
mozilla-thunderbird-locale-pt-br --without-recommends
So this isn't a bug in enigmail-locale-pt-br, therefore I'm closing this bug.
All this is of academic interest however as the format of IceDove/Thunderbird
plugins have changed since 0.9x-20060108-1 was created, so it won't work with
the current icedove package. New versions of enigmail-locale-* which works with
the current IceDove has been uploaded to, but not yet accepted by, debian.
Before it is accepted in debian it can be downloaded from my homepage:
