This is not really a bug. grisbi used to "recommend" latex-ucs and tetex-extra, making it install with package managers' default settings. It has been a suggestion since version 0.5.9-1, and the version shipped with Karmic will no longer pull texlive when installing grisbi (with default settings). You can still install grisbi without all latex stuff anyway, even with Jaunty. I am not aware of a way to do this with apt-get, but with aptitude or synaptic user interfaces, you can un-select all tex stuff and keep only grisbi before starting download. Or alternatively, you can disable automatic installation of recommendations. This is something you should do in general if you always want to have the minimum stuff installed on your system.

Status in “grisbi” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: grisbi Ubuntu intrepid (development branch) Release 8.10 grisbi 0.5.9-0ubuntu2 0 Recommends: latex-ucs, tetex-extra When installing grisbi I expected to download and install a few MB of packages. What happened instead is that apt asks for the installation of a full blown latex system with a 336MB download and close to 700MB on-disk. The upstream documentation states that latex is optional, see http://grisbi.tuxfamily.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=docs_en:installation. I believe that the dependency "tetex-extra" should be downgraded from recommends to suggests. Also the other recommends dependency "latex-ucs" doesn't exist in Intrepids repository. Should it be removed? _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ocaml-maint Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ocaml-maint More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
