Bug#167372: This package should really be split

[Francesco Poli]

Hi!

I am another user who would *very* like to see gnome-games split into
several binary packages (possibly built from a single source package)
for the various individual games.  Of course, the same holds for
gnome-games-data.

It would save users willing to play only one or two games the hassle to
pull in a huge amount of dependencies and the consequent waste of mass
memory.

Pretty please, think about it and see if this is feasible...


Also, I don't quite understand why attempting to install gnome-games
(even without recommends) seems to pull in avahi, cups, foomatic,
nautilus-burn, samba, ...
Samba?  I just want to play gnometris, there's no running Windows system
that I can see, why should I need Samba ?!?
