Description Mikko Vartiainen (reporter) 2009-04-01 00:56:19 UTC

pygtkeditor is using python2.5-runtime as a depency.

Only minimum set of depencies should be used, in this case python2.5-gtk2,
python2.5-pygtksourceview, python2.5-osso could be sufficient (didn't test this
though)

Comment 1 Anderson Lizardo 2009-05-03 17:48:59 UTC

That's correct. python2.5-runtime (and python-runtime on fremantle) are to be
used only directly by the user/developer to install the most common python
packages. For debian/control, we recommend listing dependencies individually,
thus avoiding installing unnecessary packages on the user's device.

pygtkeditor_2.4.0-2 lists depencies correctly, so I close bug
