[Bug 247746] Re: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends"
Not going to fix Hardy Wine bugs at this point. Wine recommends (rather than suggests) winbind because most users will want it by default, however it is not absolutely essential. In the case of the likewise-open issue above, that is properly solved with the likewise-open package conflicting with winbind, which will still allow wine to be installed because it is merely a recommends and not a depends. This is exactly what recommends is for -- we can't downgrade everything to suggests just because other packages don't properly declare their conflicts. ** Changed in: wine (Ubuntu Hardy) Status: Triaged => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247746 Title: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/247746/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree with commenter #6, Etienne. I think this bug is not specific to any given distribution release number and therefore not obsolete yet. Can the appropriate owner/person in charge (S. R.) alter the package and set the dependency to recommends, please? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247746 Title: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/247746/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 247746] Re: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends"
Considering the wine Recommends on winbind is actually causing breakage in some circumstance (see bug #605326), I think it really ought to be a Suggests. I will pursue that in bug #302148, since this one is Fix Released. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247746 Title: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 247746] Re: winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends"
I'm affected by the same thing. Since some guys in our organization run wine I also want to have the dependency downgraded to "Recommends". This would slightly increase overall security on our network. I also agree with Mr. Young that Wine indeed can run without winbind. Further the winbind package must be fixed so it won't search for "/etc/samba/smb.conf" anyomore (try "sudo winbindd -SF -d 10" and see yourself). -- winbind should be downgraded to "Recommends" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Scott, Is this going to be backported to Hardy? Hardy is a long term support release, and this is an easy fix, so it makes sense to do.
