2) Remove the libmono-webbrowser{2,4}.0-cil packages entirely, thereby breaking all apps which link against them (affecting only non-Debian apps, but still, it may inconvenience users, especially users migrating their apps from Windows). Sorry, this is factually incorrect. Think before typing next time. Mono.WebBrowser is purely back-end code. No end-user application will ever link to it. Applications link to the main widget toolkit, System.Windows.Forms.dll, and then as a Mono-specific implementation detail, SWF links to Mono.WebBrowser.dll. Removing Mono.WebBrowser would mean either SWF needs to be altered to drop the dependency on Mono.WebBrowser (which could be messy, especially in an ABI-stable way), or removed. Removing SWF not only means the inability for end-user code using the main Windows toolkit to run, but also means removal of some apps (e.g. src:keepass2 and src:xsddiagram) |
