Lubuntu doesn't pull in recommends, so that's not the reason it's installed. Regardless, like I said on the other bug reports, this is an issue which, in my opinion as an Ubuntu Developer, does not warrant a Stable Release Update (from the policy: "Stable release updates will, in general, only be issued in order to fix high-impact bugs." - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates). Marking as Won't Fix. I might look into that for Bionic, but it would be part of a general cleanup of dependencies. ** No longer affects: indicator-sound (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: indicator-sound-gtk2 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix ** Changed in: indicator-sound-gtk2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1734100 Title: Installation of indicator-sound-gtk2 brings unnecessary packages on Lubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound-gtk2/+bug/1734100/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
