** Description changed: libsignon-glib1 should not depend on signond. 1. Empathy and Shotwell are built with UOA support which gives them a dependency on libsignon-glib1. The UOA support is not easily split out (we looked at it last week) into a separate package. 2. signond depends on about 7.5 MB of Qt libraries and recommends signon-ui which depends on over 45MB of libqtwebkit4 and libqtgui4. It's unreasonable to expect that a GNOME or XFCE distro (like Ubuntu GNOME or Ubuntu Studio) should be required to include 50+ MB of unrelated libraries for an optional feature that the Ubuntu packages happen to be built with. 3. There is precedence for having libraries not depend on the underlying service. libmysqlclient18 doesn't depend on mysql-server. Even more relevant, Empathy & Shotwell are also built with Unity integration and therefore depend on libunity9. libunity9 does not depend on Unity and adds less than 1.5 MB to those packages. 4. Nothing else depends on signond in Ubuntu yet. To do this properly, we need to make sure that distros (or users) who have other UOA stuff - installed stiill get signond. I think having libaccount-plugin-1.0-0 + installed still get signond. I think having libaccount-plugin-1.0-0 depend on signond will be sufficient since these packages already depend on libaccount-plugin-1.0-0: - gnome-control-center-signon - mcp-account-manager-uoa - libaccount-plugin-google - libaccount-plugin-generic-oauth - libaccount-plugin-1.0-dev - account-plugin-fitbit - gir1.2-accountplugin-1.0 + gnome-control-center-signon + mcp-account-manager-uoa + libaccount-plugin-google + libaccount-plugin-generic-oauth + libaccount-plugin-1.0-dev + account-plugin-fitbit + gir1.2-accountplugin-1.0 It's impossible for users to really use UOA without those packages - installed. + installed. (Alternatively, libaccount-plugin-1.0-0 recommends gnome- + control-center-signon so even having gnome-control-center-signon depend + on signond would work.) Merge proposals attached. They were initially rejected but should be reconsidered.
