Package: wireshark Version: 2.2.6+g32dac6a-2 Severity: normal Hi,
I want to install tshark on a headless server and keep the system as small as possible because the complete operating system lives in RAM. thark pulls in libjs-openlayers (tshark -> libwireshark8 -> libwireshark-data -> libjs-openlayers), which consumes 12.8 MB of additional disk space and is not needed on the headless system: (unstable)root@konstrukt:~# apt install --no-install-recommends tshark Reading package lists...

Need to get 29.8 MB of archives. After this operation, 149 MB of additional disk space will be used. Please demote libjs-openlayers from Depends to Recommends in libwireshark-data or adjust the dependencies to prevent tshark from pulling in libjs-openlayers. -- Benjamin Drung System Developer Debian & Ubuntu Developer ProfitBricks GmbH Greifswalder Str. 207 D - 10405 Berlin Email: benjamin.dr...@profitbricks.com URL: https://www.profitbricks.de Sitz der Gesellschaft: Berlin Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, HRB 125506 B Geschäftsführer: Achim Weiss, Matthias Steinberg
