Description Philipp Hahn

2016-09-05 15:09:04 CEST

univention-lib is a collection of many scripts, which are used all over UCS.
The problem is their dependencies: If a single script needs some other package as a dependency, it gets added to debian/control which delays the availability of all scripts until all dependencies are satisfied. This is a problem when updating systems.

One example is Bug #42242, which pulls in shell-univention-lib → python-univention-lib → python-samba → samba-libs → libldb1

The script fragments should be moved to the providing packages, that is:
  ucr.sh depends on univention-config anyway and should be provided by that package.

For umc.sh there already is Bug #42201.
