Updated kdegraphics-thumbnailers package fixes suggests on texlive

Publication date: 04 Sep 2013
Modification date: 04 Sep 2013
Type: bugfix
Affected Mageia releases : 3

Description

The recently released KDE update for Mageia 3 included a change to the
kdegraphics-thumbnailers package where it suggested the texlive package,
which added the ability to generate thumbnail previews of DVI files using
the dvips command.  Unfortunately, the texlive package requires the very
large texlive-texmf package, and since the Mageia update applet installs
all suggested packages, this made installing the kdegraphics-thumbnailers
update problematic for some users.  This update no longer lists texlive
as a suggested package as a temporary workaround, so that the texlive
package can be reorganized to allow the dvips command to be provided
without requiring the full texlive-texmf package, at a later time.
