koffice: can't install Krita without Kexi
Last modified: 2008-11-05 23:10:19 EST
Description of problem: koffice-krita Requires koffice-filters which Requires koffice-kexi (through soname autoreqs). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): koffice-krita-1.6.3-13.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try installing Krita on a system without Kexi. Actual results: Kexi is dragged in. Expected results: No need to install database access to install a picture editor.
Hm... the old story again about the -filters subpackage. Rex what do you think about this. Should we split up the filter subpackage even more? Because I would not feel good about removing the require on koffice-filters as it would just workaround this but if you really want to use krita you probably need the import/export filter...
Hmm... offhand I'd say we ought to both 1. remove the hard Requires: koffice-filters. Strictly speaking it's not a hard requirement, only a nice thing to have. (or am I wrong here?) and 2. further split the filters to avoid/minimize cross dependencies. Make sense?
Andreas? what do you think? In the meantime, I'm starting to work on pkg'ing koffice2, will likely hit same/similar issue. (fwiw, retargetting f8)
I'll take a closer look.
