Or better, a "glom" virtual package depending on glom-client and postgresql. That way the "glom" name is preserved fully functional in the "default" install while leaving a path to install the client without a server using the "-client" suffix. I personally can make my own packages for my development environment (feisty on amd64 at this moment) with the modified dependencies, but I can't afford to make packages for all the different system where glom can run and I offer support (ppc for example). Having a way to user glom as a client coming with the system will make my life easier. Hadn't it will make me to look for a different solution, since the important thing (in my case at least) is to access the database itself from many places, not the interface (even when glom makes a very good interface and makes it easy for the users). -- Glom: missing dependency - PostgreSQL https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
