Package: totem Version: 3.38.1-2 Severity: wishlist
Hi. 1) totem and totem-common contains a lot of stuff,... totem itself, images, translations and also the totem-video-thumbnailer (in totem) and it's related files (in totem-common). Would you possibly consider to split that out into a separate package? It's used by several others for displaying purposes (I guess at least nautilus and nemo) and thus makes sense to have it installed separtely for people who don't use totem itself. 2) What might be even better is what I've been writing about in the end of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=+973942#35 Since there are numerous thumbnailers, I guess at least those: $ apt-file search /usr/share/thumbnailers/ atril-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/atril.thumbnailer blender-data: /usr/share/thumbnailers/blender.thumbnailer dia-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/dia.thumbnailer evince: /usr/share/thumbnailers/evince.thumbnailer ffmpegthumbnailer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/ffmpegthumbnailer.thumbnailer geogebra-gnome: /usr/share/thumbnailers/geogebra.thumbnailer gnome-font-viewer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/gnome-font-viewer.thumbnailer gnome-hwp-support: /usr/share/thumbnailers/hwp-thumbnailer.thumbnailer gnome-nds-thumbnailer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/gnome-nds-thumbnailer.thumbnailer gwyddion-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/gwyddion.thumbnailer heif-thumbnailer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/heif.thumbnailer icoextract-thumbnailer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/exe-thumbnailer.thumbnailer libgdk-pixbuf2.0-bin: /usr/share/thumbnailers/gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer.thumbnailer libgsf-bin: /usr/share/thumbnailers/gsf-office.thumbnailer librsvg2-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/librsvg.thumbnailer mate-control-center-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/mate-font-viewer.thumbnailer mcomix: /usr/share/thumbnailers/comicthumb.thumbnailer mypaint: /usr/share/thumbnailers/mypaint-ora.thumbnailer ooo-thumbnailer: /usr/share/thumbnailers/ooo.thumbnailer pentobi: /usr/share/thumbnailers/pentobi.thumbnailer qrenderdoc: /usr/share/thumbnailers/renderdoc.thumbnailer tiled: /usr/share/thumbnailers/tiled.thumbnailer totem-common: /usr/share/thumbnailers/totem.thumbnailer it would be nice if there was a virtual package or so, that all of these could provide and that packages (like nautilus) would then depend on,... maybe with some preference e.g. Depends: totem-thumbnailer | freedesktop-thumbnailer So people would get the standard pics/videos thumbnailer (i.e. totem-thumbnailer) but could also easily find thumbnailers for more "exotic" formats like blender. Obviously this would affect much more than just totem, and I have no real idea where to repot a wishlist ticket for that. Thanks for you consideration, Chris.
