Public bug reported:
Using Ubuntu 15.10
Either search for "boo" in the software centre and try to install the
"Python-like language and compiler for the CLI" package or use apt-get
install boo. A popup or message will warn the user that software needs
to be uninstalled, most of which seems completely unrelated.
Some of the packages required to be uninstalled include:
compiz
g++, gcc, etc
firefox
gedit
gnome system monitor
gparted
Plus a huge amount of other packages, totalling 1.5G.
For all these packages to be removed to simply use a compiler and
runtime environment for an obscure scripting languages doesn't seem
right.
** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Summary changed:
- Boo (Python-like language for the CLI) requires seemingly unrelated software
to be uninstalled (~1.5G remove for 3.8 install)
+ Boo (Python-like language for the CLI) requires seemingly unrelated software
to be uninstalled (~1.5G remove for 3.8M install)
