Public bug reported: ssconvert is an excellent tool and very useful for webserver applications that need to convert documents. However, for security reasons, I do not want to install all of the Gnome-related dependencies on my webserver:
The following extra packages will be installed: consolekit dbus-x11 enchant evince evince-common gconf-service gconf-service-backend gconf2 gconf2-common glib-networking glib-networking-common glib-networking-services gnome-desktop-data gnome-user-guide gnumeric-common gnumeric-doc gsettings-desktop-schemas gvfs gvfs-common gvfs-daemons gvfs-libs hunspell-en-us launchpad-integration libatasmart4 libck-connector0 libcolamd2.7.1 libdevmapper-event1.02.1 libenchant1c2a libevince3-3 libframe6 libgail-3-0 libgconf-2-4 libgconf2-4 libgdu0 libgeis1 libgeoclue0 libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx libglapi-mesa libgnome-keyring-common libgnome-keyring0 libgoffice-0.8-8 libgoffice-0.8-8-common libgrail5 libgrip0 libgsf-1-114 libgsf-1-common libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 libgstreamer0.10-0 libgtk-3-0 libgtk-3-bin libgtk-3-common libgudev-1.0-0 libhunspell-1.3-0 libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 liblaunchpad-integration-3.0-1 liblaunchpad-integration-common libllvm3.0 liblvm2app2.2 libnautilus-extension1a liborc-0.4-0 libpam-ck-connector libpolkit-agent-1-0 libpolkit-backend-1-0 libpoppler-glib8 libproxy1 libsgutils2-2 libsoup2.4-1 libspectre1 libwebkitgtk-3.0-0 libwebkitgtk-3.0-common libx11-xcb1 libxcb-glx0 libxcb-shape0 libxtst6 libxv1 libxxf86dga1 libxxf86vm1 libyelp0 lp-solve mtools policykit-1 policykit-1-gnome udisks x11-utils yelp yelp-xsl Yikes! Is is possible to decouple ssconvert from all of these dependencies and have a lightweight, "headless" version for command-line apps? Gnumeric itself does not appear to have this many dependencies: https://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/downloads.shtml ** Affects: gnumeric (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1281813 Title: Allow installing ssconvert without gnome dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/1281813/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
