I haven't followed the latest developments closely so I could be wrong, but, the -dev packages should never be required to run. They are only required to build the debs in the first place.
The issue with forcing is about setting up the system to be able to build the debs conveniently. Since you're not building debs but only installing the normal, pre built ones, you don't need to worry about it. -- [Jaunty] Ekiga's non free codec support isn't available in multiverse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316971 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
