Huh? What kind of logic is that? So any X program which doesn't run
under Wayland but does work under X should not be shipped at all? WTF?
Of course with these issues, it doesn't make sense to install Synaptic
by default. But it's still useful for anyone who doesn't use Wayland,
which is AFAIK anyone who has no properly accelerated GPU.
And besides: Isn't GNOME/Wayland only on x86 architectures the
default, but on any other architecture XFCE (with X I assume) is the
default desktop because GNOME doesn't properly work on them? Following
the same logic, shouldn't we stop shipping GNOME? </cynicism>
Regards, Axel
