not entirely true: Package: chromium-browser Depends: ..., chromium-browser-inspector, chromium-codecs-ffmpeg | chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra Suggests: chromium-browser-l10n
So only translations are optional. This can easily be solved by moving it from Suggests to Depends, but there's no need for a meta package. I initially did it that way because a/ it's a all-arch package and b/ the size of the debs (as users complained about the download size). Since i moved the debs to lzma, they shrunk quite a bit, the -l10n package is still ~1MB. On the other side, the main deb grew with time to 12MB (from 8MB a few months ago). As for using -beta in the name, no. I currently follow the beta channel for Lucid but as soon as upstream starts a stable channel for linux, i will follow that for the official ubuntu repositories. So naming the package with the channel name would mean transitioning it at some point, which is unwanted. ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- Create meta-package with dependencyes like in google-chrome https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561624 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
