This is not working so well in practice. You cannot expect users to have recommends installed after an upgrade. > anything. The reason why it is only a Recommends: is that some users > don't want the Debian menu at all. Then why do they install the menu package at all ? menu-xdg does not depend on menu. Even if both menu-xdg and menu is installed they should be able to disable menu-xdg easily. If there is problem with that they should be discussed. The various alternative to gnome-panel depending on menu-xdg are going to make things harder to them, and I will have to request KDE packages to be adjusted the same way.
