Still exists in an updated Natty. Removal of gwibber alone doesn't trigger other apps to get removed also. Removal of gwibber-service still triggers removal of indicator-me too. ## Side note. Although gwibber didn't exist on Maverick here it got reinstalled during upgrade. Positive news is, gwibber-service doesn't run on startup.

Since gwibber-service starts unasked three services removed it also. It removes indicator-me too. Expected is, gwibber-service can be removed without interference of whatever indicator*. Gwibber is just another app which one may use or not, but indicators are essentials of Ubuntu-Desktop. How come that just another app is allowed to remove indicator*, which is needed for another app e.g. Empathy? Aside, ubuntuone-client and couchdb-bin were removed before, now when attempting to reinstall indicator-me, those and related, already removed, packages are about to be installed again. (screenshot) Result, user runs in circle or has to abstain from indicator-me, while keeping Empathy without showing online-status. Conclusion, if gwibber-service leaves indicator-me alone, follow-up behaviour as above don't occur. Plus, either package doesn't mention the other one as dependency, although Synaptic says something else. http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/indicator-me http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/gwibber-service ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: gwibber-service (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-23.41-generic 2.6.35.7 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-23-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Dec 16 17:14:19 2010 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release amd64 (20101007) ProcEnviron: LANG=C SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gwibber _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
