Bug#640975: Please drop "Depends: iodbc" to (at most) Recommends:

2011-09-09 Thread Daniel Richard G.
Package: libiodbc2-dev
Version: 3.52.7-2

The "iodbc" package is a fairly heavy dependency, given that it includes
a GTK+ frontend utility. It is not needed in order to make use of iODBC
(you can edit odbc.ini files by hand), and it is certainly not needed to
develop applications against the -dev libraries.

There is no reason for "iodbc" to be a hard dependency. It should be a
recommendation at most, and is perhaps best considered a suggestion.

Bug#475180: Only supports 8bit PseudoColor displays

2008-04-09 Thread Daniel Richard G.
Package: xapple2
Version: 0.7.4-5
Severity: important

On a modern X11 setup with TrueColor/DirectColor displays, xapple2 refuses 
to start, giving the following error:

$ xapple2
Sorry bud, xapple2 only supports 8bit PseudoColor displays.
Maybe you can fix this!

This renders the package all but unusable without severe reconfiguration of 
the X display. (And if there is a viable way of running this under Xephyr, 
I haven't been able to find it.)
