Bug#987770: task-desktop: Please drop libu2f-udev Recommends
Package: task-desktop
Version: 3.67
Severity: normal
Hello,
libu2f-udev is now a transitional package and I guess it can be dropped
from task-desktop Recommends
The description says:
Description-en: Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) — transitional package
Libu2f is a package for doing Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) host communication
and has functionality for the Registration and Authentication operations.
.
This package is not necessary anymore, and can be safely removed: since udev
v244, U2F devices are autodetected without needing 3rd party udev rules.
Kind regards,
Laurent Bigonville
