You are right, but you patch is incorrect - empathy souldn't depend on one particular telepathy-connection-manager implementation, like telepathy-gabble, but should depend on virtual package telepathy- connection-manager instead (because not all empathy users wanna use jabber/xmpp, for example some use just telepathy-sofiasip, telepathy- haze or telepathy-butterfly). If we think, that most empaty users wanna have telepathy-gabble connection manager then we should depend on "telepathy-gabble | telepathy-connection-manager". According to telepathy-gnome in Recommends I think it's not good decision, as telepathy-gnome metapackage depends on empathy package and telepathy-core metapackage. Instead of recommending telepathy-gnome we should recommend or suggest telepathy-core metapackage. I've fixed Depends and Recommends in improved patch I'm attaching to this bugreport. ** Attachment added: "Improved patch to depends on virtual package telepathy-connection-manager" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14878218/empathy_debian-control.diff -- empathy lacks dependency on telepathy-gnome https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
