[Bug 326648] Re: [Kubuntu 9.04] gtk-qt-engine not working

[Brice Arnould]

Hello world !

Why not to rename the current package into gtk-qt-engine-base and to
provide a package gtk-qt-engine which would be empty and depend on both
gtk-qt-engine-base and libbonoboui ? This way people who installs
libbonoboui would get the right behavior and people who explicitly ask
for gtk-qt-engines too.

I would also like to suggest a hack... I do not know if it is feasible with regards to Ubuntu's packaging standards.
The iso version of kubuntu-desktop would suggest gtk-qt-engine and recommend gtk-qt-engine-base. A few days after the release, an update would recommend gtk-qt-engine and do no other changes.
It's ugly but it might works.

Maybe the answer shouldn't be those hacks and maybe we should think
about a way to provide some trimed-down package on the CD. If people are
interested we could try to find way of doing this, but since I'm far
from being a apt guru and I know nothing of Ubuntu's policies, it's very
very unlikely that I could find suitable solution.
