Bug#546704: brasero: Brasero shouldn't conflict with dependencies of toplevel gnome metapackages

[Olivier Berger]

Package: brasero
Version: 2.26.2-1
Severity: normal


Brasero can't be installed at the moment in testing if one wishes to keep gnome and gnome-desktop-environment, as it has a conflict with nautilus-cd-burner which is one of the dependencies of those Gnome top-level meta-packages.

Instead of adding such a conflict, I think there should be another way, like disabling its nautilus extension, or make it a configurable option. Thus the program could still be used. Maybe making the extension a separate package could be a way ?

And as gnome-baker seems to have problems (#524462), it would still be great to have a burner (brasero) installable and usable in Gnome.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
