Description Marius Orcsik 2008-12-13 13:16:51 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

system-config-printe-kde has a lot of Gnome dependencies through system-config-printer.

This dependency chain should be circumvented somehow, either by reimplementing the functionality of system-config-printer which is needed, either with working with the system-config-printer developers to abstract the features that are in common for both KDE and Gnome.
Comment 1 Jonathan Riddell 2008-12-15 05:51:57 UTC
Closing as invalid.  This is a packaging issue.  You should ask your distro packagers to split out the parts of system-config-printer needed by system-config-printer-kde.

See this for example:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/all/system-config-printer-common/filelist

Comment 2 Rosetzky Cedric 2009-07-20 17:12:13 UTC
And if I'm compiling from sources?

These dependancies ARE stupid. You, system-config-printer-kde devs, should add the needed system-config-printer files/features in the system-config-printer-kde package.

A kde function which depends on Gnome, even indirectly, is really annoying... KDE4 devs choices are sometimes really wierd...
