Bug Description
indicator-network 0.5.1+14.
1. apt-cache show indicator-network | grep Depends
What happens: The result includes unity8.
What should happen: The result does not include unity8.
This prevents indicator-network from being used in Elementary Pantheon, for example.

Indicator-network depends on unity8 as it's the only notification- service implementation that has all of the required extended menuitems and snap decisions.
For indicator-network to be usable outside unity8, few things have to happen:
1. We need to introduce a virtual package unity-notificat ions-service ions-service ions-service
2. unity8 must claim to provide unity-notificat
3. indicator-network must depend on this virtual package
4. Pantheon must implement the extended menuitems and snap decisions and have it's notification service of choice to claim to provide unity-notificat
Unless somebody from the community commits to 4. this will stay in the wishlist category.
