Bug#398079: linux-uvc-source: drop dependency on linux-image-* on resulting modules packages

2008-01-31 Thread W. Martin Borgert
Thanks, Junichi, for not dropping the dependency. We could as
well drop all dependencies. Why does xyz depend on libc6? I
have a locally build glibc!

Hi,

 Would you consider downgrading the Depends: to a Recommends:, as other
 modules packages do ?

 Care to name such examples?

It was either madwifi or fglrx, wanted to check that before replying
but I'm low on free time right now (explains the delayed answer).

Hi,

 udev would have a reason to not depend on kernel image, but linux-uvc
 is a package generated with the Debian mod-ass framework. I would
 consider it good practice that it depends on such kernel image.

Hi,

  Please remove the Depends: line :) I don't use the standard kernel
  packages, so I can't install the package unless I install a standard
  kernel or modify control.modules.in.
 
  That's a feature, not a bug, please use equivs.
 
 Last I checked, depending on a kernel image wasn't considered good
 practice.
 
 Heck, not even udev does it ;)

Hi,

 The modules packages built from linux-uvc-source depend on linux-image-*,
 which is useless.
 
 Please drop this dependency for people who do not want to use precompiled
 kernels.

Huh?


regads,

In control.modules.in:

Package: linux-uvc-modules-_KVERS_
Architecture: any
Depends: linux-image-_KVERS_ | kernel-image-_KVERS_
