Providing a virtual package would be one way of solving this bug. If that is the approach, I would suggest using a clearer name than "unity- notifications-service": snap decisions are not really notifications, they are dialogs which as technical debt are *currently* implemented as part of a notification system.
A second way of solving this bug would be to move the dialogs into Network Manager (or a package it depends on), so that they can be used in places like the first-run setup and System Settings even if indicator-network isn't running. A third way would be to make indicator-network completely non- interactive on Touch, having a menu only on PC, so it can use the existing NetworkManager UI for authorization etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-network in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318533 Title: Inappropriately depends on unity8 Status in Network Menu: Triaged Status in The Unity 8 shell: New Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: indicator-network 0.5.1+14.04.20140409.1-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 14.04 1. apt-cache show indicator-network | grep Depends What happens: The result includes unity8. What should happen: The result does not include unity8. This prevents indicator-network from being used in Elementary Pantheon, for example.
