From my work with the application I developed (the KeyMusician Keyboard), and its Debian package), as of the Ubuntu 15.10 release, only required dependencies are now installed. Before then, "Recommends" dependencies were installed, which I wish it still did. To overcome this change, I had to create some dummy packages that included the "Recommends" dependencies as required dependencies of the dummy package. I also created a dummy package that had the "Recommends" and "Suggests" packages as required dependencies, and the user had to install one or the other of those additional dummy packages. I don't know why that changed in Ubuntu 15.10 - perhaps it has something to do with the snappy package support. -- Sincerely, Aere -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574879 Title: Java Desktop.browse not supported on Kubuntu 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-8/+bug/1574879/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
