Description Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2017-10-08 23:23:56 UTC 
Description of problem:
abrt (-python/-python3) grew an unexplained dependency on python3-gobject which pulls in cairo and 20+ graphical libraries which is undesirable on a headless machine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.10.4-1 (rawhide/f27)
2.10.3-3 (f26)

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade to the above mentioned version from one of the previous ones.

Actual results:
python/python3-gobject is pulled in, along with cairo and 20+ graphical libraries, including mesa and many libX*.

Expected results:
python/python3-gobject-base is pulled in and no cairo or graphical libraries.

Additional info:
As far as I can tell, abrt doesn't use cairo and python/python3-gobject only contain one single .so that pulls in cairo and python/python3-gobject-base.
Comment 1 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2017-10-08 23:26:23 UTC 
I can still process python3 stacktraces after removing python/python3-gobject with --nodeps as long as python/python3-gobject-base is installed.
Comment 2 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2017-10-08 23:37:29 UTC 
Perhaps the correct dependency is:
python2.7dist(pygobject) or python2dist(pygobject) instead of python-gobject
and
python3.6dist(pygobject) or python3dist(pygobject) instead of python3-gobject
Comment 3 Peter Robinson 2017-10-09 07:38:38 UTC 
Things that don't need cairo and graphics support should just depend on pygobject3-base
Comment 4 Martin Kutlak 2017-10-09 13:32:18 UTC 
Thank you for reporting this issue.

The pygobject library is used in implementation of ProblemWatcher in abrt-python{,3}. 

I've submitted a fix to the github repository:
