** Description changed: Please sync gnome-user-share 3.18.3-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main) The version of gnome-user-share currently in Ubuntu has 2 features: Bluetooth and WebDav. Ubuntu has installed gnome-user-share by default for many years so that sending and receiving files over Bluetooth works. That feature is now rovided by gnome-bluetooth and gnome-control-center. Therefore, the new version of gnome-user-share dropped the Bluetooth feature. Ubuntu has delayed packaging a newer version of gnome-user-share because it was using unity-control-center which did not support the new Bluetooth feature. Ubuntu has one long-standing diff from Debian. Ubuntu's gnome-user-share package does not actually include the apache dependencies needed for the WebDav feature to work (LP: #536766). Since that's now the only feature in gnome-user-share, dropping this diff makes sense. $ reverse-depends gnome-user-share Reverse-Recommends ================== * cinnamon-desktop-environment - * gnome-bluetooth * gnome-control-center Reverse-Depends =============== * gnome-core [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 ppc64el] * ubuntu-budgie-desktop [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 ppc64el] * ubuntu-gnome-desktop [amd64 arm64 armhf i386 ppc64el] Step 1 ------ Ubuntu and Ubuntu Budgie both use gnome-control-center so gnome-user-share is unused for Bluetooth. a. Drop the dependency on gnome-user-share from at least gnome-bluetooth gnome-control-center ubuntu-budgie-desktop But we might need to drop the dependency everywhere until after 18.04 LTS for 1.c. to work. b. Demote gnome-user-share to universe. c. Have ubuntu-release-upgrader remove gnome-user-share on upgrades. Step 2 ------ Sync gnome-user-share from Debian. I believe we want to do Step 1 for Ubuntu 17.10 "artful". The complication for Step 2 is that upgraders will get Apache installed unless they upgrade using update-manager/do-release-upgrade Therefore, I recommend delaying Step 2 until 18.04 development opens.
