jbicha | besides me, we've got a bot, elky and two fossfreedom's | 12:37 |
jbicha | One reason metapackages use a lot of Depends instead of just Recommends is to avoid odd things like bug 1635801 | 12:39 |
fossfreedom_ | jbica: aye ... split personality ;P | 12:58 |
fossfreedom_ | jbica: so meta-packages should be ALL depends i.e. don't use ( ... ) syntax? | 13:01 |
fossfreedom_ | jbicha: ... would be helpful if I could actually type your handle! | 13:05 |
jbicha | you can still use recommends but use depends for the stuff that users should definitely still have installed | 13:05 |
fossfreedom_ | makes sense | 13:06 |
jbicha | the line is fuzzy though as there's disagreement about what users should be able to uninstall but still benefit from the metapackage | 13:06 |
