The dependency is "iceweasel|firefox|abrowser". Indeed, I wonder why this dependency is there. The changelog is unclear about this. It apparently got added when Fiz Vazquez (CC'ed, please keep CC list) was maintaining the package for Ubuntu (in a private repo?). The reason is probably the same rationale than having /usr/bin/pytrainer as a wrapper: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/firefox MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/firefox python /usr/bin/pytr Other pytrainer Debian package maintainers, do you have a clue? I'm tempted to drop that wrapper (it causes a lintian warning about not having a manpage for "pytr"). I suspect the need to be able to use some Firefox libraries but I'm not sure that such a hack is the right way to do things. -- You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to pytrainer in Ubuntu.
