Bug#804636: kde-plasma-desktop: Should depend on kwin-x11



Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:90
Severity: normal

Honorable maintainer,

First let me apologize if this is the wrong package for my report but I'll 
explain why I thought it would be.

In the past I had used the kdm package as a package that would install a 
bare-bones KDE system on a computer.
It would bring the window manager, the startup hooks and etc, without 
also installing every single KDE application.
The kdm package is gone so I tried kde-plasma-desktop. It worked 
perfectly except for the fact that it didn't install the 'kwin-x11' 
package, which left me with a functioning plasma desktop without proper 
windows or window management.

I can't see why someone would want a kde-plasma-desktop without KWin or 
X so please consider depending on that package.
I can understand there could be some use cases I'm not able to see - in 
which case please consider using "recommends kwin-x11" or at least a 
x-window-manager virtual package, if that would make sense.

If this is absolutely the wrong package to ask for that please let me know 
so I can redirect it properly.
