Bug#510300: installation-report: Missing installation of dbus-x11 package in xfce based install



Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.38
Severity: minor

Comments/Problems:

I chose to install the xfce desktop environment and the installation process worked like a sharm. The only problem I had after logging into the system, was the lack of the trash can.

The tooltip on the trash can applet revealed that some of dbus related software was missing, so I did a quick search and noticed that the dbus-x11 package was not installed. After I installed that package and logged in again, the trash can appeared.

I would suggest to include dbus-x11 in the installation package list for xfce, otherwise people won't be able to see the trash can unless they install that package manually.

Regards,

Pietro Pizzo
