[Bug 807979] Re: deja-dup should depend on ubuntuone-couch

 

According to bug 854202 deja-dup still crashes if ubuntuone-couch isn't installed and might be causing the reporter problems mounting extrenal drives.
Also the recommend was somehow removed and isn't present in the latest version(19.92-0ubuntu1).

Title:
  deja-dup should depend on ubuntuone-couch

Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Test case:
  Install deja-dup
  Select Ubuntu One as the backup destination
  Start a backup
  => crashes looking for couch.auth

  Work around:
  sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-couch

  Ubuntu One is provided as a possible (not default) backup destination
  but the backup crashes looking for couch.auth which is provided by
  ubuntuone-couch.

  The crash is a bug, but just adding the dependency is only my opinion.
  One might:

  1) make deja-dep depend on ubuntuone-couch (easy, but not strictly necessary since U1 isn't the default)
  2) prompt the user to install ubuntuone-couch when selecting U1 as destination (more complex)
  3) make a dummy package deja-dup-ubuntuone that depends on ubuntuone-couch (requires the user to know what to install)
