[Feature] Is gvfs an optional dependency? #439

Open miyl opened 3 months ago

miyl commented 3 months ago

Trying to install this on Arch, and partially because of the gvfs dependency it needs to pull in all sorts of indirect dependencies like udisks, which in turn brings in things like parted. To me installing a partitioning tool seems a bit unnecessary just to get notifications. When I read #144 it seems gvfs might just be a dependency for "MPRIS covers", but it seems from the README that MPRIS itself is just an "available widget" which can be removed. Does this make gvfs an optional dependency? If so, are there perhaps other dependencies that are optional dependencies?
