Description Sandro Mani 2013-10-10 12:04:33 UTC
Description of problem:
I'd like to suggest to split off the kde and gnome fontends of debconf to respective -kde and -gnome subpackages. This saves ca 233 MB of dependencies on servers which do not run a desktop environment. This change is safe, since the frontend to use is determined dynamically in AutoSelect.pm based on the installed frontends.

I've implemented this in the following SRPM: http://smani.fedorapeople.org/debconf-1.5.51-1.fc21.src.rpm

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
debconf-1.5.49-5.fc21

Comment 1 Sandro Mani 2013-10-11 14:33:28 UTC
By the way: since I maintain a number of other debian related packages, I'm happy to comaintain this one too if desired.
