In Debian sid (i386), rkward 0.4.9a-1 has these dependencies (likely to differ from ubuntu in a number of details):
depends php4-cli | php5-cli, r-base-core (>= 2.4.9), kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.9), libacl1 (>= 2.2.11-1), libart-2.0-2 (>= 2.3.18), libattr1 (>= 2.4.41-1), libaudio2, libc6 (>= 2.7-1), libfam0, libfontconfig1 (>= 2.4.0), libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.5), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1-21), libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0), libidn11 (>= 0.5.18), libjpeg62, libpcre3 (>= 7.4), libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libqt3-mt (>= 3:3.3.8b), libsm6, libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-21), libx11-6, libxcursor1 (>> 1.1.2), libxext6, libxft2 (>> 2.1.1), libxi6, libxinerama1, libxrandr2 (>= 2:1.2.0), libxrender1, libxt6, zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4) recommends r-base-html Of these, the following are probably unneeded, as they are not used directly: libacl1 (>= 2.2.11-1), libart-2.0-2 (>= 2.3.18), libattr1 (>= 2.4.41-1), libaudio2, libfam0, libfontconfig1 (>= 2.4.0), libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.5), libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0), libidn11 (>= 0.5.18), libjpeg62, libpcre3 (>= 7.4), libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libsm6, libxcursor1 (>> 1.1.2), libxext6, libxft2 (>> 2.1.1), libxi6, libxinerama1, libxrandr2 (>= 2:1.2.0), libxrender1, libxt6, zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4) The following are actually used, but should be redundant (already required by kdelibs4c2a): libc6 (>= 2.7-1), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1-21), libqt3-mt (>= 3:3.3.8b), libx11-6, libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-21) Those depends come in through dpgk-shlibdeps. dpkg-shlibdeps is not really to blame, either, though (or only for the redundant depends). The upstream build-system (autotools system with KDE specifics) insists on linking a whole lot of libraries at link-time, which are not directly used by rkward at all. I have a strong feeling that this could be trimmed down considerably (upstream, but that happens to be myself), but I just don't have enough knowledge to do something about it. Note that it's more of an aesthetical problem, since most (all?) of the named dependencies will be pulled in by kdelibs4c2a, anyway. Also note, that it's probably not worth investing much time on this problem for the 0.4.x series of rkward. Versions 0.5.0 and on depend on KDE 4 and use the new cmake-based build system from KDE. This suffers from similar problems, but the implementation is vastly different. -- Unneeded dependencies? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186301 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
