I can imagine at least two alternatives: * ubuntu-meta depends on xserver-xorg and other critical packages; or
* Creating a new 'xorg-minimal' metapackage. But I also imagine nobody will ever bother with those because it's not actually important. More likely that the two dependencies this bug is about would be cut as you request, or that nothing will change at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956126 Title: xorg metapackage depends on x11-apps and xorg-docs-core Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: xorg, a required dependency of ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop- minimal requires the package x11-apps. Currently Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy defaults to Wayland. These applications are ancient and now most people won't even be using X11, much less these example applications. Why are x11-apps going to be required in April of 2022?
