[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#488151: xfce4-sensors-plugin: does not run without hddtemp, but hddtemp is only recommended

[Tino Keitel]

Package: xfce4-sensors-plugin
Version: 0.10.99.4~svn-r3775-2
Severity: normal

When I want to add the plugin to a panel, without having hddtemp installed,
I only get this error:

An error occurred when executing "/usr/sbin/hddtemp -n -q /dev/sda":
Failed to execute child process "/usr/sbin/hddtemp" (No such file or
directory)

This error should be removed or hddtemp moved from Recommends: to Depends:
