Pacman dependancies for Orage

Hi,

Just wondering why when I try and install the package orage, pacman wants to pull in xfce panel?

Thanks

It's in orage dependencies: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/orage/
Since orage is "A simple calendar application with reminders for Xfce" it's not that weird.

That wasn't previously a dependency for it. I had orage a while back in openbox with tint2. That panel is certainly not *needed*.

I don't see why it'd be a dependency either.

Before I responded I checked the log https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … ages/orage and there was nothing about adding xfce4-panel dependency - it was there for a looong time.
The most recent patch mentioning the panel is https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … 79c2e31792 - in the context of the xfce panel rebuild.

sudo pacman -Rdd xfce4-panel

Orage still working as expected.

Thanks

So that imply that xfce4-panel is optdep for orage (or makedep and optdep) no?
then fill a bug??

Orage provides a plugin for xfce4-panel, so there's a fairly obvious reason for the dependency. If anyone feels strongly about that, a bug report would be the right way to go.
