What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Attempting to install it What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expected: install StatusNotifier Instead: dependency on WinterBoard What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.1.2 Please provide any additional information below. Whyyyyyy is it dependant on WinterBoard? Can't you just release the themes seperately? This is really a very unneccesary dependency.

I'd like to throw in my vote to *not* remove this dependency. The Winterboard integration allows developers to override the default StatusNotifier icons with a different set of icons.

I'm also in the "don't make me install Winterboard just for this" camp. asoell has a valid point, however there's no reason to force Winterboard on users that don't want it. If it can't be an optional dependancy maybe it just needs two builds in Cydia?

Why not do this: Since the only thing that requires winterboard is the lock screen notifier then remove the dep on WB and allow them to install it any how, they will just need to have WB installed to be able to use the lock status. Also, to the rest of you; What's wrong with WB?

i've never had a problem with winterboard, don't know what all the whining is about. ryanneufeld has a good solution. make the app disable lock screen notification if WB is not present if you can. |
