Providing a virtual package would be one way of solving this bug. If
that is the approach, I would suggest using a clearer name than "unity-
notifications-service": snap decisions are not really notifications,
they are dialogs which as technical debt are *currently* implemented as
part of a notification system.

A second way of solving this bug would be to move the dialogs into
Network Manager (or a package it depends on), so that they can be used
in places like the first-run setup and System Settings even if
indicator-network isn't running.

A third way would be to make indicator-network completely non-
interactive on Touch, having a menu only on PC, so it can use the
existing NetworkManager UI for authorization etc.

Title:
  Inappropriately depends on unity8

Status in Network Menu:
  Triaged
Status in The Unity 8 shell:
  New
Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  indicator-network 0.5.1+14.04.20140409.1-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 14.04

  1. apt-cache show indicator-network | grep Depends

  What happens: The result includes unity8.

  What should happen: The result does not include unity8.

  This prevents indicator-network from being used in Elementary
  Pantheon, for example.
