Hi,
do you have a handy answer/link to this issue with google-chrome in TDE?
I installed it forcing ignore dependency and it works just fine without this library
# apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: google-chrome-stable : Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not installed
Description-en: allow applications to export a menu into the panel A library to allow applications to export a menu into the panel. Based on KSNI it also works in KDE and will fallback to generic Systray support if none of those are available.
I think there should be a way to remove the dependency from the package, I know how to do it before installation, but is there (I'm sure there is) a way to do it after the installation.
Thanks in advance

This pacjage is in Debian Stable, aka Jessie, what distro are you using?
'apt-get update" "apt-get upgrade" though if using Debian Stable not much changes.

One usually do not answer a question with question. I very well know that this is a package provided, but I do not need it and it pulls a lot of dependencies. From what I understood it is KDE4 or KDE5, but not used by trinity.
This is why I am asking here
I want to ignore the dependency in google-chrome package so that I do not have to uninstall/install google-chrome. As each google product it is nasty - it sets default alternative to chrome each time I install it, so I have additional overhead, but I need it for testing some web sites
So again is there a way to modify the dependency of the package after it is installed and where ...
thanks

My apologies, I misread your post.
I have not tried 'equivs', indeed KDE pulls in lots of depends :-(

There is a package in Debian/Ubuntu called equivs, which can be used to generate dummy debs to satisfy dependencies. You'd give equivs-build a control file to create an empty libappindicator1 and install it.

Thanks Nick. This helped mitigate the problem. However more detailed question would be proper probably for the dev list, I wanted to know if there is a way to manipulate the debian - dpkg or apt or whatever repository after installation. I would appreciate a source link to read about. Looking for such in blind cost me too much time.
For now I build a dummy package and it worked fine. I also was able to upgrade to 14.0.2 and all seems good. So quite of a progress.

I don't think that this aproach would be a wise: after each "apt-get update" you'd have repeat the manipulation.

Thanks, I need to read more about it how it works, but it is a good hint. For instance I was expecting as an answer something like this here:
Prevent apt from installing systemd packages in the future.
echo -e 'Package: systemd\nPin: origin ""\nPin-Priority: -1'
/etc/apt/preferences.d/systemd
