We should check if we can remove/reduce the dependencies on the following packages to get them off the list of maintained packages: * qemu * phonon-backend-vlc, vlc and related dependencies: exiv2, sdl-image1.2, faad2, libopenmpt, openjpeg2 * php7.x (php7.3 in 5.0-3) etc They are the most expensive to maintain, currently (judging from 4.4-9).
UCS 5.2 doesn't contain PHP 7.x but PHP 8.2
* We should check that base/univention-errata-level/maintained-packages.txt is up to date for 5.2-0 * We should check that packages not on that list are not installed after system setup (or at least removable without tearing down essential metapackages). E.g. univention-management-console-module-setup pulls in a couple of x11 libs. If we could uninstall that reliably then we wouldn't need to maintain them forever at runtime. univention-list-installed-unmaintained-packages should not show anything on a vanilla UCS system (with supported metapackages installed, like univention-samba4 or univention-printserver etc.) * We may want to remove emacs-gtk from the Recommends of univention-role-common * printer-driver-foo2zjs pulls in tk8.6 and a lot of trailing packages via "Recommends: tk". Maybe we can trim that down too.
