Bug#793026: kde-window-manager: upgrade to 4:5.3.2-2 generates



Hi,

I also have the same problem.

In my case I did not install the full KDE environment because I wanted to have minimal system without full-text search and all other memory-consuming niceties.

kwin-x11 is installed and has no unsatisfied dependencies.
I also have kde-window-manager installed, but removing it does not seem to be easy because then it complains that kde-workspace depends on it, as well as a few other packages.
kwin_wayland is not installed.

I would prefer not to install kde-full

I've tried updating the alternatives, and here what I've got:

update-alternatives: warning: alternative /usr/bin/kwin (part of link group x-window-manager) doesn't exist; removing from list of alternatives
update-alternatives: warning: /etc/alternatives/x-window-manager has been changed (manually or by a script); switching to manual updates only
There is no program which provides x-window-manager.
Nothing to configure.

So it looks like there is no any X windows manager installed, from the point of view of the system.

I've tried installing "sudo aptitude -PRV install kde-standard" but it did not help.
Installing kde-full with all recommended packages would add some 1.5 GB of garbage I don't need on a development machine, and that's would be really unpleasant after those happy years with fine-tuned KDE and Debian Testing installation...

Any advice?

Sincerely,

Andrew
