Bug#381971: kmplayer should recommend mplayer
i believe that at a minimum mplayer should be in the suggests. i believe that the doc you refer to leaves open the option to suggest a non-free package. i use apt-get and usually install all recommends/suggests. mike On 8/8/06, Fathi Boudra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: severity 381971 wishlist thanks hi, > since kmplayer relies upon mplayer for dvd, wmv, etc support, wrong, kmplayer on debian relies upon xine backend. please see http://bugs.debian.org/360092 for the background. > mplayer should be among the suggests or the recommends for kmplayer so that > it will be installed if the user always installs recommends/suggests and > has debian-multimedia.org as an apt source.

Eventually, i can add a Suggests but not a Recommends, but using Suggests doesn't resolve the problem because aptitude installs Recommends packages and not Suggests. So i'm waiting for you feedback before tag your bug report wontfix or close it. cheers, Fathi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#381971: kmplayer should recommend mplayer
Package: kmplayer Version: 0.9.2a-1 Severity: normal since kmplayer relies upon mplayer for dvd, wmv, etc support, mplayer should be among the suggests or the recommends for kmplayer so that it will be installed if the user always installs recommends/suggests and has debian-multimedia.org as an apt source. thank you for your consideration. mike -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages kmplayer depends on: ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.3-1core libraries and binaries for al ii kmplayer-common 0.9.2a-1 common files for kmplayer ii libacl1 2.2.41-1 Access control list shared library ii libart-2.0-22.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libattr12.4.32-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libaudio2 1.8-1The Network Audio System (NAS).
