Package: python3-metakernel Version: 0.27.5-3 Severity: minor X-Debbugs-Cc: gor...@chronitis.net
python3-metakernel adds a manual dependency on jupyter-notebook, which should probably not be a hard dependency. The library doesn't import from notebook anywhere I can see, so it's only being added as a possible frontend for whatever kernel metakernel is implementing. However, other frontends exist (jupyter-console, nbclient, kernel gateways, etc), so a hard dependency on the most heaviweight frontend seems unnecessary. I would either demote this to Suggests: or drop it completely. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU thread) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages python3-metakernel depends on: ii jupyter-notebook 6.4.8-1 ii python3 3.9.8-1 ii python3-ipykernel 6.7.0-1 ii python3-pexpect 4.8.0-2 Versions of packages python3-metakernel recommends: ii python3-pydot 1.4.2-1 python3-metakernel suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
