Package: im-config
Severity: wishlist

I am the maintainer of fcitx related packages, and planning to switch
to im-config from im-switch. The upcoming upstream release of fcitx
will have fbterm support, and fcitx itself will be highly modularized
hence itself won't depend on any X or gtk packages. But im-config
depends on zenity, which depends on X and libgtk, will force fcitx
pulling in those dependencies if I replace im-switch with it, this
would be unacceptable for those people who only use fcitx-fbterm.

There are two ideal ways to resolve the problem:
1.downgrade zenity to Recommends, this is the easiest way
2.provide two packages from im-config, one depends only on dialog,
another depends on zenity.
