[Desktop-packages] [Bug 278001] Re: Inkscape package contains very large (8MB) inkview binary file - please package it separately
I don't think it makes much sense for us (packaging guys for Debian/Ubuntu) to remove inkview from the main package. Instead I wonder whether inkscape could grow a libinkscape shared library so that much of the common things shared between inkscape and inkview don't get duplicated. I'm therefore considering this bug an "upstream" bug (and tagging it as so in the Debian ticket). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to inkscape in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278001 Title: Inkscape package contains very large (8MB) inkview binary file - please package it separately Status in Inkscape: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Baltix: New Status in inkscape package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: inkscape The inkscape and inkview binaries are the largest on my Ubuntu 8.04 system: $ ls -lk /usr/bin | sort -rn -k5 | head -n5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root8042 2008-04-07 21:42 inkscape -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root8030 2008-04-07 21:42 inkview -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root3685 2008-06-13 01:22 Xephyr -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root3659 2008-03-08 04:45 gimp-2.4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root2861 2008-05-26 11:11 gdbtui Very large (8MB) inkview executable isn't needed for Inkscape - please package it separately or use one of the following ways: I suspect that the inkscape and inkview binaries are > 90% identical.
