Gunnar, the live CD seeds are a different thing from package dependencies. It's a text file containing a list of packages that are preinstalled in the live CD, but the installer might decide not to include them in the installed system.
Ubuntu-mate has only fcitx-bin in its live CD seeds: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/ubuntu-mate.xenial/live Upon installation, fcitx is removed, so the problem doesn't affect the installed system. Ubuntu has a whole lot of fcitx related packages: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/ubuntu.xenial/live Upon installation, those are removed. Lubuntu and Xubuntu don't have fcitx in their seeds: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/lubuntu.xenial/live http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/xubuntu.xenial/live Yet, as you said, lubuntu-desktop depends on fcitx so it's there in both the live CD and the installed system. On the other hand, xubuntu-desktop doesn't depend on fcitx, so it doesn't have fcitx neither in the live CD nor in the installed system. So if Martin wants fcitx to be there in the live CD, but not in the installed system for those that don't need it, I think he can just include the packages I mentioned in the seeds file. But whatever ubuntu-mate decides to do with its seeds, fcitx-bin shouldn't break dead keys, it's another part of this issue that needs to be fixed. Btw, by installing only fcitx-bin in a Xubuntu live CD or installation, the problem happens there as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1605571 Title: apt install --no-install-recommends fcitx-bin, breaks dead keys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1605571/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
