   Bug#1112646: elpa-ligature: support emac   
   31 Aug 25 16:10:01   
   
   XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist   
   From: tirei+deb@agon.one   
      
   Package: elpa-ligature   
   Version: 1.0~git20231203.6ac1634-2   
   Severity: wishlist   
      
   Dear Maintainer,   
      
   the package description states "It though only works with Debian's emacs-gtk   
   package.", and the metadata enforces that: "Depends: emacs-gtk".  I am not   
   using   
   emacs-gtk, but emacs-pgtk, which conflicts with emacs-gtk.  I thus cannot   
   install elpa-ligature, without removing emacs-pgtk.   
   Copying the package's files into my $HOME and manually loading them from within   
   emacs-pgtk does however seem to work.  Is there some known issue with   
   elpa-ligature and emacs-pgtk, that I've yet to notice?  In that case it might   
   be   
   nice to change the description to "It only works with Debian's emacs-gtk, not   
   emacs-pgtk.", to make it clear that this packages does not just need a GTK GUI   
   (which was my first interpretation of what that description intended to say),   
   but specifically emacs-gtk.   
   Otherwise, would it be possible to e.g. change the "Depends:" to "emacs-gtk |   
   emacs-pgtk", to allow installation of elpa-ligature alongside emacs-pgtk?   
      
      
   Yours   
   Timon
