I'm saying that the same guy who provided the control patch for #440913 is also working on the package, he is working on patches for already existing lintian warning (like problems with copyright, changelog, updating policy). After that, I do hope Andre (which is the primary maintainer for this package) manifest his intention to apply the patches, otherwise, since it is under Debian-BR-Team umbrella, I will apply the patches and upload the package.

Bug#527375: icon packages should not recommend (nor depend) desktop environments
severity 440913 normal # disputing the explaination given in #440913 why this is minor: # "open since long" thanks Hi faw, On Donnerstag, 7.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that once the fixed package is upload some other lintian warnings will be fixed as well. Or, is there (or will there be) a lintian warning against icon packages depending/recommending desktop environments? regards, Holger P.S.: regarding the severity: I consider it quite a drawback on the functionalita of this package if its not installable without kde, thus I think the bug is not minor, but normal. I also agree that it's pointless to waste much time on a severity discussion, when the fix is around the corner :-) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Bug#527375: icon packages should not recommend (nor depend) desktop environments
Package: kde-icons-kneu Version: 0.2-1 Hi, kde-icons-kneu depends on kdebase without any need as one can very well use icons without kdebase :-) kde-icons-crystal kde-icons-crystalproject kde-icons-nuovext kde-icons-nuvola all only recommend kdebase, but actually I think thats a bug too. And for example tango-icon-theme doesn't recommend anything. I guess I'll file bugs against those packages too :-) regards, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
