Unmentioned dependencies on webpage of package budgie-desktop.

Twiki · 2019-04-15 17:40:31

And mentioned dependencies are not going to be installed.
I haven't even checked the dependencies of package budgie-extras.

Q1. Why are packages bubble-wrap gnome-desktop harfbuzz-icu brotli woff2 webkit2gtk zenity geocode-glib libgweather geoclue gnome-settings-daemon xorg-server-xwayland not mentioned as dependencies of package budgie-desktop?
Q2. Why are required (not marked optional) dependencies, not installed? .......... (They are not mentioned as to-be-installed in the command line output, and are not already installed.)

Already installed required dependencies/packages : accountsservice libibus libwnck3 git

Command line output of packages to be installed (pacman dry-run):

A1. Because they aren't dependencies of budgie-desktop, but they are dependencies of dependencies, e.g., budgie-desktop doesn't depend on gnome-desktop, but only on gnome-session which in turn depends on gnome-desktop.

As for Q2, only make depends are missing. They don't get installed with the built package.

Dependencies are not listed redundantly/recursively. The packages that are being installed and not mentioned on the page are dependencies of the dependencies.

The "required but not installed" dependencies are makedeps, which are dependencies for building the package but not running it and will be installed if the PKGBUILD is sourced with makepkg

Edit Argh!

@Trilby @V1del Thanks for explaining. I'm very surprised that this is the case. Because it is not very nice to find out afterwards that a third desktop environment (Gnome) was installed.
Is there a pacman option that will list all dependencies ? Rosetta wasn't conclusive (to me).
Similar to the tree command. I'm a person who likes to know exactly what is going to be installed.

Budgie is forked from Gnome so what do you expect? It's not really installing a third entire desktop environment though, just parts. For reference the gnome desktop package is 3.0 MB.

Doesn't your "pacman -Sp budgie-desktop" already do that? But even then pacman will list everything it is about to install and asks for confirmation so were's the problem?

Exactly what I wanted. Cheers!
This did the trick:

pactree -s budgie-desktop > ~/Documents/budgie-desktop-full-dependency-tree.txt
