--- Begin Message ---Package: tasksel Version: 2.74.2 Severity: wishlist Hi, I think it is time to wonder what should go in the default GNOME installation for the lenny release. Currently, the "gnome-desktop" task consists of the "gnome-desktop-environment" metapackage (official GNOME release) plus a number of extras. However we already provide the "gnome" metapackage which consists of g-d-e plus a number of extras to make a full-fledged desktop. I think that we should converge on the same set of packages, so that the "gnome-desktop" task could simply install "gnome". This would avoid a lot of unneeded synchronisation work, while the GNOME team knows what packages are deprecated and which ones are introduced. Here are the current differences. Packages installed by the gnome package, not by tasksel: * abiword: adding it would mean installing two word processors, since openoffice is already part of the installation. However abiword is much lighter and much more suitable for beginners than OOo is, hence they cover different user needs, which is why I end up installing both on my machines. However I’m not against removing it from the "gnome" dependencies, or at least moving it to recommends. * dia: it’s not a very good application, but it doesn’t have any suitable replacement. I think we should ship it by default, but not that strongly. * gnumeric: same problem as abiword, but the difference is that gnumeric is superior to OOo calc in many ways. I feel it should be the default for GNOME, even if it means not installing OOo calc. * inkscape: this one is a killer application. Let’s ship it by default. Oh, and we don’t need OOo draw thanks to it :) * planner: not very well maintained upstream, but it is a useful application without many good replacements. I don’t feel strongly about it, but it is small. * gdm-themes: nice to have for customizing one’s desktop, just like gnome-themes-extras. * gnome-games: was removed from g-d-e, but we definitely want it. * gnome-games-extra-data: nice themes to have, especially the vector card themes. * libpam-gnome-keyring: enhances GNOME keyring functionality a lot, we should have it. * gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly: adds support for some video formats that gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg does not understand. We should have it. * system-config-printer: this application supersedes gnome-cups-manager and foomatic-gui. * tomboy: very nice app, but controversial since it brings the full Mono stack, so we don’t make it part of gnome-desktop-environment. * totem-plugins: totem will lack functionality without it. * serpentine: we set it as the default application to burn audio CDs. Packages installed by tasksel, not by the gnome package: * gnome-cups-manager, foomatic-gui: superseded by system-config-printer. * gparted: not sure it is that useful, but we could add it to gnome. * update-notifier: not very well maintained, but definitely useful. Maybe as a recommend? * gnome-app-install: already here through recommends, but we can make it more explicit. * gdebi: we should definitely add it to gnome. * transmission-gtk: I don’t know that application, but it sounds like a useful addition to gnome. * liferea: definitely a good addition to gnome. * pidgin: we should add this one, or maybe rather telepathy, to gnome. * openoffice.org-gnome, openoffice.org-evolution: it sounds like something that should remain as only installed by tasksel. * evolution-plugins: sounds like something we forgot to add on our side. * tsclient: we now install vinagre which is part of the GNOME release, which is nicer but lacks RDP support. I don’t know what’s best for this one. * iceweasel-gnome-support: should remain as only installed by tasksel. * gnomebaker: its functionality is mostly covered by having both nautilus-cd-burner and serpentine. * network-manager-gnome: I think we should at least recommend this one. * bluez-gnome: same as NM. * xsane: probably something that should be added to gnome-office. * arj, p7zip: we can probably add them (for the same reason they are part of the task). Starting from this list, I’d like your comments so that I can upload a new meta-gnome2, after which, if you like the idea, tasksel could be made to install gnome + a handful of packages, instead of the current very long list.

Please note that this upload should not be allowed to reach testing before meta-gnome2 2.22.2~2 does. However, I've been waiting on that for exactly one month, and this version of tasksel does need to get into lenny for the release. . [ Joey Hess ] * Split out <lang>-{kde,gnome}-desktop tasks. Closes: #431173 * Add uim-applet-{kde,gnome} to the japanese desktop tasks, as Kenshi suggests. * Add libgl1-mesa-dri to the desktop task. Closes: #481464 * Use debhelper v7; rules file simplification. - Removed commit target from rules file. (Doubt anyone uses it.) - DEBUG=0 has no effect when building anymore, removed that from rules file. * Drop empty /usr/lib/tasksel/packages from tasksel-data. * Ignore .git directory in places that ignore .svn. * Tasksel has moved to a git repository. * Add Vcs-Git field. * serbian-desktop: l10n-sr-cs is now -sr * Swap out gnome-cups-manager for system-config-printer, following the lead of the gnome package. * system-config-printer also superscedes foomatic-gui in gnome-desktop. * Add gnome-games, used to be pulled in by g-d-e, but no longer, and we definitly want it. * Add libpam-gnome-keyring to gnome desktop, following lead of the gnome package. * Add back gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly since totem is back to using gstreamer. * Remove gnomebaker. Add serpentine to handle audio CD burning. Joss says that data CD burning can be handled by nautilus-cd-burner. * eject and alsa do not need to be key in the desktop task. . [ Kenshi Muto ] * Move jfbterm and unifont packages out of Key for the japanese task. . [ Christian Perrier ] * No longer install console-cyrillic in the cyrillic task. Closes: #484748 * Correct the code for Belarusian in the cyrillic task * Correct spelling of "GNOME" in tasks descriptions * Correct spelling of "Brazilian Portuguese" in relevant tasks * Replace 'NetBIOS' by 'CIFS' in the file-server task description Unfuzzy translations by doing 's/NetBIOS\b/CIFS' on them. Bengali and Hindi translations marked fuzzy as they had no occurrence of 'NetBIOS' in the translated strings. . [ Per Olofsson ] * Remove hpijs-ppds from desktop and print-server. hpijs can now automatically generate ppd's which are visible in CUPS. Closes: #484990 * Add northern-sami task with hunspell and hunspell-se. * Make northern-sami-* short descriptions consistent. . [ Debconf Translations ] * Marathi updated . [ Translations of tasks ] * Use of "GNOME" instead of "Gnome" enforced in all translations * Japanese updated * French updated * Galician updated * Vietnamese updated. Closes: #485750 * Thai updated * Bulgarian updated * Portuguese updated. Closes: #485934 * Marathi updated . [ Joey Hess ] * Move myspell/hunspell from base language to lang-desktop tasks, as it is used by gui programs. * Exclude hidden tasks from translation, since there is very little point in translating these and it causes much translator load, and bloats tasksel. For now, all tasks in Section l10n are excluded, which excludes the right set, currently. (With apologies to hard-working translators for not having done this sooner.) . [ Theppitak Karoonboonyanan ] * Update thai-desktop task: - Drop gtk-im-libthai. Only thai-gnome-desktop needs it. . [ Joey Hess ] * kde-desktop: include kdesuso. Closes: #485655 * gnome-desktop: Make gnome the Key package for this task. Needs meta-gnome2 2.22.2~2, which syncs gnome to the past contents of the task. Thanks to Josselin Mouette for the cooperation. Closes: #484121 * swfdec-mozilla is included as a dependency of gnome; provisionally follow through by including it in the desktop task as well. Closes: #467324 . [ Eddy Petri?or ] * Convert Romanian translations to use the correct diacritics . [ Joey Hess ] * finnish: Remove libenchant-voikko, add voikko-fi. Closes: #491077 * kde-destkop: Add kpowersave, a recommends of kdeutils. Closes: #491669 * print-server, desktop: remove foomatic-db-{engine,hpijs,gutenprint}, which cups apparently does not use, instead using foomatic-filters-ppds. Thanks, Per Olofsson for investigation.
