[Bug 292403] Re: firefox 3.03 in kubuntu 8.10 requires gnome apps

[Greg Coit]

Alexander, I *think* you are saying the following 2 things:

"it is not a hard depend" - one can install firefox in kubuntu 8.10
using adept without installing gnome files?  If true, this is not
obvious to me.  Selecting Firefox Web Browser (3.0.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu2)
in adept on a clean install of Kubuntu 8.10 forces the following files
to be selected for install:

gnome-keyring
liblaunchpad-integration1
libglib-perl
python-gst0.10
notification-deamon
libgnomevfs2-0
libgnome2-0
gamin
libgtop2-common
libgnomeui-common
libgnome-keyring0
ubufox
xulrunner-1.9
scrollkeeper
docbook-xml
libpam-gnome-keyring
python-numeric
liubbonoboui2-0
gconf2
libwnck-common
libgnome2-perl
python-pyorbit
libnotify1
python-gconf
libgamin0
python-gtkhtml2
libwnck22
libsexy2
libgconf2-4
libxres1
libgp11-0
libgnome2-common
libstartup-notification0
libgnome2-vfs-perl
libgnomecanvas2-0
python-glade2
libpolkit-gnome0
python-sexy
python-vte
libvte9
libgnomeui-0
libgtk2-perl
libidl0
libbonobo2-0
libglade2-0
gnome-app-install

libgtkhtml2-0
libgnomecanvas2-common
python-launchpad-integration
firefox-3.0
libgnomevfs2-extra

gksu
gnome-icon-theme
gnome-mime-data
liborbit2
policykit-gnome
libbonobo2-common
libgksu2-0

"kde users proibably don't want to install it" - Meaning firefox?  Firefox is far and away the most popular web browser for linux users.  While konquerer is a good web browser, there are many of us who wish to use firefox and we should not have to install gnome to get it.
