> gconf (U) 1/ A package shipping files in the GConf directories might not work until the trigger has run, but I don’t think it has an impact on its dependencies. > gdk-pixbuf 1/ This is a complicated case. A package shipping pixbuf loaders might need them to work before being able to do other tasks. For example you might not be able to process SVG icons until the trigger has been run. We already encountered some hairy bugs caused by this trigger. > glib2.0 (U) 1/ Same as GConf. > gnome-icon-theme (U) 1/ No problem at all. Icons might be missing in applications until the trigger has run, but that’s all. > gnome-menus (U) 1/ No problem at all. The menu contents might be updated later, but it’s read dynamically anyway. > hicolor-icon-theme (U) 1/ Same as gnome-icon-theme. > desktop-file-utils (U) 1/ I don’t think that’s a problem. The MIME database will be updated later, but that shouldn’t affect reverse dependencies. > fontconfig (U) 1/ This would only be a problem if a postinst script in a package would require a given font the package depends on. I don’t think there are such cases. > python-support 1/ dpkg-trigger is always called with --no-await by reverse dependencies, to save time during upgrades. This does not go without problems, and some identified reverse dependencies have to run update-python-modules -p by hand. Anyway it will probably go away during the wheezy cycle. Cheers, -- .''`.
