That KDE-only user doesn't need /usr/share/gnome-session/. Splitting off cairo-doc.session to a package she doesn't need to install may be just the right thing for her. > > How about moving /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/cairo-dock.session > to a separate package and making *that* depend on unity-settings-daemon? > > Yes, it's maybe more clear but it will not fix the problem.

I was thinking of doing it the other way around: make it (cairo-dock-gnome-integration, or whatever it will be called) require the core cairo-dock packages. People who want to use Cairo-Dock with GNOME would ask for this package only, and everything else they need would follow. Ditto for cairo-dock-kde-integration, cairo-dock-xfce4-integration, etc. as appropriate. I've also been thinking about the Enhances header, but as that is a reverse Suggests rather than a reverse Recommends I don't think it will help much in this case. (Maybe dpkg needs to grow conditional dependencies, that are activated only if a combination of several packages is installed; but I haven't done the math to see if this could actually be made to work, and in any case it would have to be filed as a wishlist bug against dpkg first.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464517 Title: cairo-dock-data is missing a dependency on gnome-settings-daemon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo-dock/+bug/1464517/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
