Public bug reported: webbrowser-app (in main) currently has a non-explicit runtime dependency on ubuntu-download-manager, which is in universe. This has been working until now because the desktop version of the app doesn’t make use of the QML API for the download manager, only the version for touch devices does (and ubuntu-download-manager is part of the touch seed). With convergence in mind, the desktop version needs to start using that QML API, so the runtime dependency needs to be made explicit. Hence the need for ubuntu-download-manager to be included in main. It is likely that other applications will have the same kind of requirements in the near future too.
ubuntu-download-manager is actively being developed and maintained, upstream tracks their bugs at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /ubuntu-download-manager/. All its build and runtime dependencies are already in main. ** Affects: ubuntu-download-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1488425 Title: [MIR] ubuntu-download-manager To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-download-manager/+bug/1488425/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
