Now that certain utilities are being shipped as snaps by default this might be more important. E.g. default install of 18.04 includes gnome- system-monitor as a snap but if you want the vanilla gnome desktop you end up with the deb version as well. If you're using snaps it makes more sense to use the snap version as it can see the snap processes (doesn't look like the deb one can) so would be nicer to be able to remove the deb version rather than the snap if the duplicated menu entries got annoying. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764596 Title: vanilla-gnome-desktop dependencies too strict To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-gnome-meta/+bug/1764596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The bzr branch is the source for generating the meta package (vanilla- gnome-desktop) The source package ubuntu-gnome-meta, has an 'update' script that reads the seed from bzr and generates the package lists that are used by germinate to produce the final meta packages. So the basic process is 1. Update bzr branch 2. pull-lp-source ubuntu-gnome-meta 3. For testing update the bzr branch in update.cfg 4. Run the './update' script in ubuntu-gnome-meta 5. Build package as per normal (dpkg-buildpackage or sbuild or PPA etc) To split the desktop seed, - You would create a new file in the bzr repo and move all the core deps into it (or probably easier to rename desktop to core, then move the apps into a new desktop file) - You would need to update the SUPPORTED File in the seed bzr repo, to include the new core seed and have desktop depend on it - You would need to add a new package for the core seed in debian/control in ubuntu-gnome-meta Maybe take a look at some of the other flavours, pretty sure lubuntu did a similar split in the past. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764596 Title: vanilla-gnome-desktop dependencies too strict To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-gnome-meta/+bug/1764596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hey Tim, I'd be happy to take a look at it. I haven't done anything with seeds before, but from having a quick look at the wiki it looks like that seed is what generates the vanilla-gnome-desktop package - is that right? If I wanted to try to split up the two packages would I need to produce a second seed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764596 Title: vanilla-gnome-desktop dependencies too strict To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-gnome-meta/+bug/1764596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Michael, I would be happy for apps to be downgraded to Recommends, if you have a look at the seed[1] alot are already marked recommends (Recommends are the ones marked like "* (gnome-weather)". Overall the selection that are marked Recommends is a little inconsistent and this could certainly be cleaned up a bit. If you would like to prepare a patch or Merge Proposal, would be happy to sponsor it for you. As a side note, one thing we has planned to do for a long time, but no one has ever got around to doing it. Is to split the parkageset out into seperate core and apps packages.
