Package: xbase-clients Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Followup-For: Bug #199906
Hi, I tried removing all gl related packages on a system which had no hardware supporting it anyway and with a dire need for harddisk space, but couldn't because xbase-clients contains a number of gl applications. I had to build an empty package with equivs to satisfy the gl dependency, which is rather stupid. Would you please split out the gl clients into their own package? (from a cursory look, most are just test or diagnostics applications anyway) Regards, Filip -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.30 Locale: LANG=C, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages xbase-clients depends on: ii cpp 4:3.3.5-3 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) ii foogl1 [libglu1] 0.0 Dummy package to satisfy xbase-cli ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdps1 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Display PostScript (DPS) client li ii libexpat1 1.95.8-1 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig1 2.3.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.3 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-12 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-12 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libxaw7 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Athena widget set library ii libxcursor1 1.1.3-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxi6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Input extension li ii libxmu6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxmuu1 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 lightweight X Window System miscel ii libxpm4 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X pixmap library ii libxrandr2 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii libxtrap6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System protocol-trapping ii libxtst6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System event recording an ii libxv1 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System video extension li pn xlibmesa-gl | libgl1 Not found. ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii xlibs-data 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X Window System client data ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- debconf information excluded -- /-------------- Filip Van Raemdonck - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------\ < GPG key at public keyservers.
