Package: latexila
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: wishlist
I typically expect dependencies to be essential for a package to work
correctly. So if A depends on B, I expect that A either won't work at
all or will not work properly unless B is installed. (Perhaps I've
misunderstood the sense of 'dependency' but that is the one suggested by
their role in blocking installs etc. in package management.)
latexila currently depends on rubber or latexmk and these depend on
texlive-latex-base (tetex-bin is a virtual package with no candidates).
However, it is quite possible to use latexila with pdflatex and friends
- rubber and latexmk are supported but so are many other options and
further possibilities can be configured.
Moreover, it is also possible to use latexila without texlive-latex-base
being installed at all. There are at least two reasons one might wish to
do this. First, one might be using and managing an installation of
texlive from upstream. Mine is under /usr/local/texlive and is managed
using tlmgr etc. (Or one might be using a different flavour of tex
installation if there are any.) Or, second, one might need to edit tex
source on a machine without needing to process it on the same machine.
One might want to use the same editor on a desktop and netbook, for
example, but only process documents on the desktop. Or one might use an
institutional installation of tex located on a server for processing.
I agree that the normal use case would involve a tex installation on the
same machine and that most users would use Debian packages to install it
but I would think it should be a recommends rather than a depends.
Note that my suggestion would treat latexila in a similar way to
texmaker and texworks which recommend, but do not depend, on texlive
packages. It seems confusing to treat different tex editors differently
in this respect. (It made me wonder if this one just wouldn't launch
without tex installed but I tried it out and it seemed to work just as
well as texmaker or texworks for editing.)
I admit that other tex editors also depend on texlive but I would argue
that they are mistaken as well...
