[Bug 1776074] Re: indicator-datetime shouldn't recommend big ubuntu-touch-sounds package (maybe Suggests should be used instead)

 

No. Touch sound is also used for desktop for ringtones and alarms.
Removing touch-sound will end up indicator-datetime spamming syslog
specially if it can't detects the type of system (i.e. phone or
desktop). Removing touch-sounds requires dropping "phone" support in its
code or similar considerable changes.

I can make the ringtones configurable through gsettings and make both
phone & desktop use it and then perhaps renaming it to "ubuntu-ringtones
/unity-ringtones". It's better than the current situation.

Title:
  indicator-datetime shouldn't recommend big ubuntu-touch-sounds package
  (maybe Suggests should be used instead)

Status in Default settings and artwork for Baltix OS:
  New
Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  indicator-datetime package has big ubuntu-touch-sounds package in
  Recommends field even in latest Ubuntu Bionic release.

  gnome-panel recommends indicator-applet-complete and indicator-applet-
  complete recommends indicator-datetime, so big and not useful ubuntu-
  touch-sounds is installed in all desktop systems, where gnome-
  flashback (gnome-panel) desktop environment is used.

  I think ubuntu-touch-sounds should be removed from Recommends field
  and if there are some cases, where ubuntu-touch-sounds is usefull for
  indicator-datetime, then Suggests should be used instead.
