Dependencies of an add-on

[hjkl (H&M)]

@bonnietwin

Avahi was a dependency for cups but is also one for samba, mpd, netatalk and shairport-sync.

No samba or any of the add-ons you listed above: so I have manually removed avahi

@bonnietwin

The same question then arises with dbus as that dependency is also used by netattalk and libexif, which is also used by minidlna.

Thanks: I manually removed dbus because none of those were installed.

@bonnietwin

We missed that possibility and nobody flagged it up with the Core Update Testing stage.

That would be a nice feature. I removed by now at least 2 add-ons left behind because I had cups.

@bonnietwin

Look in the lfs file for that addon and there will be a line starting with DEPS which will have a list of the dependencies for that addon. If empty there are no dependencies.

Please be a bit more detailed: cups is gone, so where should I search for lfs for cups?

In the link provided above there is no cups

I went back to core 189 where cups was available and the links still does not show CUPS:

look: git.ipfire.org Git - ipfire-2.x.git/tree - lfs/

Appreciated
