[Bug 2007610] [NEW] unsatisfiable dependency on chromium

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Steve Langasek (vorlon):

The latest icingaweb2-module-pdfexport package in Debian depends on
chromium, which does not exist as a package in Ubuntu.

According to the Debian maintainer, it appears the requirement for
chrome/chromium is fundamental to the functioning of this package,
including the version currently in lunar which does not have the
dependency declared.

Upstream description of the software from the README is:

 PDF export functionality for Icinga Web 2 using Google Chrome/Chromium
for rendering.

Practically speaking if Debian is going to depend on chromium, we will
not be able to take updates of the package from Debian.  But also,
depending on chromium for your implementation is a dodgy sort of design
for server software - we have plenty of headless pdf renderers in the
archive that don't depend on a full web browser implementation.

So we should remove icingaweb2-module-pdfexport and its reverse-
dependency icingaweb2-module-reporting.
