[Bug 271994] Re: LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra
Without this additional dependency the user can't even use lyx to create output files of the introduction. Attempting to do so will result in an error about an unfound subfigure.sty. Installing texlive-latex-extra resolved that error and dispayed the ps or pdf of the introduction. -- LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271994 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

Hi, Reading the comments on this and the Debian bug I'm reluctant to upload this fix. Suggests does feel right, but I realise that the message shown to the user is not very helpful. I'm going to unsubscribe the sponsors from this bug and wait for Debian. If you disagree please re-subscribe the sponsors and someone else will take a look.

[Bug 271994] Re: LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra
Dara, it would be incorrect to reduce this bug from triaged to new because of debian maintainer thoughts. It should be left as is until the bug is officially closed (or marked as a dup) in Debian, and following that, it can be closed here. For now I'll put it back to confirmed until further activity in the Debian bug. On a side note, the Debian guys made good points about why not to promote -extra to recommends. Probably best not to change anything here. ** Changed in: lyx (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271994 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

[Bug 271994] Re: LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra
According to the Debian Policy Manual: This [Recommends] declares a strong, but not absolute, dependency. The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together with this one in all but unusual installations. Source: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch- relationships.html#s-binarydeps Packages should avoid being listed as dependencies unless they are essential for installing/running the application. Therefore, as Nick Ellery said, texlive-latex-extra should be in recommends. As of Ubuntu Intrepid (to become 8.10), the recommends field of a package is automatically installed like a dependency, but APT will not complain about unsatisfied recommends on your system. However, as this package is maintained by Debian (and to allow future syncs), the changes should be submitted upstream to Debian. This bug report needs forwarding upstream. Once Debian adds texlive-latex-extra to recommends, the packaged can be synced. ** Also affects: lyx (Debian) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: lyx (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271994 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

I think moving texlive-latex-extra up to Recommends along with the rest of the texlive-latex-* packages would be best.

[Bug 271994] Re: LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra
This is using 8.04. I'm fairly new to Linux, so I apologize if what constitutes a dependency and what a suggestion has already been settled in general. However, lyx simply fails with an error about missing "esint" when trying to use these integrals - it's not clear that the texlive-latex-extra is needed, and integrals seem like they would be very commonly used, judging from Lyx's user base. Myself, I'd rather see it be made a dependency; however, see my comment at the start. If it's clearly only a suggestion as far as the community is concerned, then lets close this. -- LyX should depend on texlive-latex-extra https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271994 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
