Description Daniel Rusek 2021-04-29 15:40:48 UTC
Description of problem:
GNOME Tour is user removable on Fedora 34 (since GNOME 40), however removing the package also results in a gnome-initial-setup package being removed, breaking GNOME for newly created user accounts!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-tour-40.0-2.fc34.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use latest, fully updated Fedora 34 Workstation system.
2. Run "sudo dnf remove gnome-tour" in a Terminal.

Actual results:
Both gnome-tour and gnome-initial-setup packages are removed.

Expected results:
Only the gnome-tour package is removed.

Comment 1 Kalev Lember 2021-04-30 07:05:26 UTC
Oh hm, good catch.

We added the dependency to gnome-initial-setup because gnome-initial-setup in gnome 3.38 used to launch gnome-tour at the end of initial setup run. It however didn't have a desktop file back then (or maybe it was hidden=true, I can't remember) so it didn't show up in the app launcher. In gnome 40 it's visible so I understand that people may want to remove it.

The launching mechanism has also changed and it's no longer gnome-initial-setup that launches it, but gnome-shell itself. I think what we should do here is to drop the dep from gnome-initial-setup and move it to gnome-shell, but as a Recommends instead of hard Requires so it can be removed.
