Metacity depends on zenity to show "Application is not responding."
dialog. It is not optional...

I think it should be possible to port from zenity to GTK+ dialog. I will
happily review such patch. :)

Title:
  Is it reasonable to move "zenity" from "Depends:" to "Recommends:" for
  metacity package?

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Actually metacity don't really depend on "zenity" package.

  I want to install metacity and purge zenity because zenity depends on
  too much heavy packages like aspell, dictionaries-common, libwebkit-
  gtk-3, libgstreams-0.. which are very and very big.

  So is it possible to move "zenity" in "DEBIAN/control" file from
  "Depends" to "Recommends" ?

  For most developers, long-time regardless of Metacity makes metacity
  dependencies too unreasonable...
