Currently on Ubuntu 17.04 dev things have changed a bit. There seem to be 3 packages mainly responsible as the entry point: lxde-core, lxde- common and openbox-lxde-session. lxde-common claims to have a set of configuration files for pcmanfm and lxpanel but these packages are only in its "Recommends" field which looks broken to me as lxde-common would not be needed if you also don't install pcmanfm and/or lxpanel. lxde- core claims to be a metapackage and depends amongst others on pcmanfm and lxpanel and recommends lxde-common. Maybe its pcmanfm and lxpanel dependencies should be removed and added to lxde-common and the lxde- common recommendation should get a dependency. This way installing only openbox-lxde-session should pull in all required dependencies for a common minimal LXDE environment.
But this is just a suggestion and maybe it can be enhanced a bit or this can be enhanced in a completely different way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1551690 Title: Missing dependency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxde-common/+bug/1551690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
