Thanks for your elaboration. My reasons for requesting this are: - GNOME != Unity, with all respect for Unity, but there are GNOME users that do not use any of it - at the moment it pulls in only 2 kB, but when Unity extends dependencies (without being aware of this little package), it could pull in a whole lot more are did happen in the past - hence, suggestion to split the package in thunderbird-gnome-support and thunderbird-unity-support - for recommended packages I can still decide myself to install or deinstall it, with hard dependencies that is more difficult, luckily there is no hard dependency on thunderbird-gnome-support
Perhaps it is all a bit too much on the details in order to optimise this for GNOME non-Unity users, but I hope you also see my point. So sudo dpkg -P thunderbird-gnome-support works for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1669997 Title: Remove libunity9 package dependency for thunderbird-gnome-support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1669997/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
