Currently, enlightenment is not a metapackge as your subject says - it's a binary package for the enlightenment window manager. I don't think it's appropriate to add a Depends or Recommends on a login manager, since it's reasonable to use without. At most it might make sense to add Suggests: x-display-manager. But apt does not install Suggests by default, so you'd still need to request it manually.

If entrance (or some other EFL-based login manager) were mature, I'd be tempted to add an enlightenment-desktop metapackage. But I don't think this is likely. Ross
