[Bug 1022232] Re: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies

[Bug 1022232] Re: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies
Unfortunately the x86 part of boinc is really hard coded, even if you have 64bit machine you will download many x86 apps, so this won't likely change anytime soon, unless somebody proves to me that every upstream project has a 64bit native application. At the moment, without the ia32libs you won't be able to crunch at many projects, and this isn't an acceptable behavior. So this bug for now is won't fix. Please look at client/cs_platforms.cpp file http://boinc.berkeley.edu/gitweb/?p=boinc-v2.git;a=blob;f=client/cs_platforms.cpp;h=1312aa0cd98afc608b3835a31b720416e051bdd6;hb=HEAD If somebody points to me that every projects can crunch in a 64 bit environment I'll be glad to remove this dependency.

[Bug 1022232] Re: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies
Good point... sure, some projects might not have all (or any) of its applications available in x64 for linux. And I just found out after a little research that, surprisingly, this is very common in Windows, where SETI@Home and Einstein@Home for example, lacks 64-bit support for most of their apps. But if one doesn't bother to crunch only for projects (and apps) that offer x64 linux, then I guess there is no harm in installing boinc with --no-install-recommends, correct? And of course, if one wants to crunch 32-bit, they gotta have 32-bit libs. Fair enough. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022232 Title: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boinc/+bug/1022232/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1022232] Re: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies
The culprit is indeed ia32-libs, good eye @Guillaume ! On a relatively fresh Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop, sudo apt-get install ia32-libs alone pulls 242 packages worth of 244MB installed space. A monster indeed. While boinc without recommends shows a much nicer picture: 6 packages worth less than 18MB. And that can not be called burdened with millions of lines of needless code, @Dougga. So a simple workaround for this bug is to install using --no-install- recommends. Problem solved for you. Also, worth noting that ia32-libs is *not* needless code: they are the 32-bit counterpart of most of your system libs, and they are required by many other packages, for example wine and skype. Many users happen to already have ia32-libs in their system, or might end up installing it in the future, and the first package that pulls it take the blame for being bloated. On the long term, could boinc remove such recommendation, or at least downgrade it to suggestion? Are there any 32-bit-only projects that require it?

[Bug 1022232] Re: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies
JFI: without having looked deeper into this issue, you could use aptitude why $package to see why it is being installed / pulled in. Maybe that helps to debug this. ** Changed in: boinc (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged ** Changed in: boinc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022232 Title: installing boinc-client requires too much dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boinc/+bug/1022232/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Except for the idle detection, for which the boinc-client needs a particular X
library - xss, if I am not erroneous. This was the
original request quite some time back.
The original poster put is as a question on launchpad, I made it a bug.
I am 100% sure other packages like git do not install so much nonsense.
I am 100% sure that a command-line only package doesnt' require so much libs.
I agree that it is too much that is drawn with it. I am not sure for the moment
if this is truly the fault of the boinc-client,
which only depends on
${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends},
libboinc (= ${binary:Version}),
python (= 2.3),
adduser,
ca-certificates
not truly recalling why it depends on python, actually, and the boinc-library
depends on
${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}
which seems reasonable to me.
Now, in the real world, this ${shlibs:Depends} are becoming where the symbols
in the binaries of those packages depend on, which is
http://packages.debian.org/sid/boinc-client (and not so bad)
So, from my side I tend to think this bug to be ubuntu-specific or due to some
dependency to have become crazy. Hence my initial
suggestion to investigate what might happen when only the true dependencies and
not the recommended packages are inspected.
