Package: mate-media-gstreamer Version: 1.8.0+dfsg1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
I'm currently running mate with the sawfish wm (which I'd been using with gnome2 for many years and does some nice things I like), and that all works just nicely so far, except this package wants to bring marco back in again. I'm not quite sure why it needs to depend on that (except maybe it lets marco make sounds for various actions?) -- but all I really wanted from it was the volume applet for the panel, and if I get dpkg to force install it without marco, that works just fine too. I'm quite happy to have my windows not make sounds at me if that's all I'm losing :) So could you please consider dropping the dependency on marco, or if there is some reason that actually isn't possible, putting the volume applet somewhere that it can be installed without needing that. The dependency on mate-desktop also looks like it might be overkill (given the contents of that package), but I'm less worried about that one since I do have it installed anyway. Thanks very much for your work on this! That's really about all I have to grumble about at this stage, it's otherwise all working very nicely. I was also going to report the problem from #749593, which I ran into when swapping marco for sawfish, but I see that's already fixed now and just waiting to hit jessie :) Cheers, Ron -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.15-rc7-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mate-media-gstreamer depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.20.0-2 ii gstreamer0.10-alsa [gstreamer0.10-audiosink] 0.10.36-1.1 ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base 0.10.36-1.1 ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good [gstreamer0.10-audiosink] 0.10.31-3+nmu3 ii libatk1.0-0 2.12.0-1 ii libc6 2.18-7 ii libcairo2 1.12.16-2 ii libcanberra-gtk0 0.30-2 ii libcanberra0 0.30-2 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-5 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.30.7-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.40.0-3 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 0.10.36-1.1 ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.36-1.2 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.23-1 ii libmate-desktop-2-17 1.8.1+dfsg1-1 ii libmate-panel-applet-4-1 1.8.0+dfsg1-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-2 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-3 pn marco <none> ii mate-desktop 1.8.1+dfsg1-1 ii mate-media-common 1.8.0+dfsg1-1 ii x11-utils 7.7+1 Versions of packages mate-media-gstreamer recommends: ii alsa-utils 1.0.27.2-1 ii sound-theme-freedesktop 0.8-1 mate-media-gstreamer suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
