Title:
linux-xen metapackage Hates Freedom -- universe packages have deps on
multiverse packages
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Binary package hint: linux-xen
Submitted from Hardy 8.04.1 as of 24 July 2008:
Exhibit A:
Package: linux-xen
Section: universe/metapackages
Source: linux-meta
Depends: linux-image-xen (= 2.6.24.19.21), linux-restricted-modules-xen
(= 2.6.24.19.21)
Exhibit B:
Package: linux-restricted-modules-xen
Section: multiverse/metapackages
Source: linux-meta
Version: 2.6.24.19.21
Addendum:
Package: ubuntu-xen-server
Section: universe/base
Source: xen-meta
Depends: bridge-utils, libc6-xen, libxen3, linux-xen, python-xen-3.2,
xen-docs-3.2, xen-hypervisor-3.2, xen-tools, xen-utils-3.2
So ubuntu-xen-server is in Universe, but is uninstallable unless you
add multiverse sources. Likewise the linux-xen package.
It is my understanding that packages in universe must not depend on
multiverse, so perhaps ubuntu-xen-server should depend on linux-image-
xen and linux-xen should be itself moved to multiverse. Or maybe some
of this ought to be moved into Recommends or something.
