Package: webext-lightbeam Followup-For: Bug #904933 Control: severity -1 important Control: tags -1 patch It does have a major effect on the usability of a package by preventing user from installing it in the first place (i.e., Raspberry Pi with a limited free space on an SD card). There is also a fix [1].

Is this package (in detail the UI) working badly in this version? I don't think so. Instead of discussing the severity of the bug report it would be more helpful to figure out which installed packages or files are useless so we can solve this issue technically. If you can help to identify the really required files and summarize these here in this bug report would help to get the issue solved. -- Regards Carsten Schoenert

Control: severity -1 normal Hello Mykola, Am 09.02.19 um 15:52 schrieb Mykola Nikishov: >> I mean, why should a browser extension which seems to have no relation >> to TeX install 1 GB of fonts which are considered "extra" from TeX >> Live's point of view? > > In my opinion this bug deserves a grave severity - I doubt any user > would install this extension if it will consume 1 Gb of disk space. I agree this issue is really not nice. But pulling data through other packages is justify a severity of grave. Please visit the website on bugs.d.o [1] about the various severity to understand the right usage of severity tagging. The issue in question isn't breaking any policy, raises security issues, makes the package not usable or is provoking any data loss, so a severity of critical, grave or serious isn't a correct tagging. Decreasing the severity to normal. [1] https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities -- Regards Carsten Schoenert

Package: webext-lightbeam Followup-For: Bug #904933 severity -1 grave thanks Axel Beckert writes: > webext-lightbeam pulls in texlive-fonts-extra which has 1 GB of > installed size. Is this hard dependency really _required_? Yes, it uses 4 OpenSans-*.ttf fonts. fonts-open-sans already provides these fonts and is about 2 Mbytes in size. I've submitted PR https://salsa.debian.org/webext-team/lightbeam/merge_requests/1 > I mean, why should a browser extension which seems to have no relation > to TeX install 1 GB of fonts which are considered "extra" from TeX > Live's point of view? In my opinion this bug deserves a grave severity - I doubt any user would install this extension if it will consume 1 Gb of disk space. -- Mykola Libre/Free Java Software Engineer https://manandbytes.gitlab.io/
