Title:
xdiagnose declares unnecessary dependency on apport
Status in “xdiagnose” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
xdiagnose currently declares a dependency on apport. This is not
necessary; it seems that xdiagnose includes some apport hooks, but
that's fine to do (and the rest of the package runs fine) without
apport present. This dependency should be changed to a Recommends or
Suggests.
The reason is that xdiagnose is useful even if an installation doesn't
want its machines reporting upstream, and apport tends to do that.
This is a regression (of sorts) from lucid, in which nothing important
depends on apport.
