[Bug 1116791] Re: xterm and gnome-terminal should not be dependencies

[Nafallo Bjälevik]

This bug has actually been fixed. At least in Bionic we now have:

* xinit:
  Recommends: ... gnome-terminal | xterm | x-session-manager | x-window-manager | x-terminal-emulator
* xorg:
  Depends: ... gnome-terminal | xterm | x-terminal-emulator, xinput

Title:
  xterm and gnome-terminal should not be dependencies

Status in xinit package in Ubuntu:

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
   Hi,

  ubuntu-desktop depends on xterm and gnome-terminal. xorg is a
  dependency as well, and in turn depends on xterm | x-terminal-
  emulator. Something is wrong here. I'd say either removing the depends
  on the terminal emulators from ubuntu-desktop or, in case of xorg
  getting replaced at some point, depend on xterm | x-terminal-emulator
  here too...

  
  Best wishes, Nafallo
