Ubuntu package has too many dependencies #6355

Closed netAction closed 9 years ago

netAction commented 10 years ago

Expected behaviour

When installing ownCloud from the SUSE repository it should install ownCloud.

Actual behaviour

A virus scanner, an office suite, a wiki, a mail server and some other stuff is installed.

Steps to reproduce

echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:ownCloud:community/xUbuntu_13.10/ /' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/owncloud.list apt-get update apt-get install owncloud

Server configuration

Operating system: Ubuntu 13.10 ownCloud version: 6.0.0-0

Updated from an older ownCloud or fresh install: fresh

Solution

Use package suggestions instead recommendations.

By the way.

Please add "updatechecker=false" to default conf.php. At the moment ownCloud wants me to update and shows a yellow warning message.

our sync algo was relying on in-sync system times

... where ntp did not fix anything on many systems as explained 200 times in this issue.

"Furthermore, the dependencies vary greatly between distributions. E.g. we have Recommends: libreoffice-writer for suse, but don't mention it for rhel/centos."

Fedora / RHEL do not have soft dependencies, it's hard or nothing. That explains several of the differences.
