Sandy, please calm down. I uses and care about TomBoy, that is why I bother writing here.
I wrote that the SOFTWARE TomBoy falsly announce a feature that doesn't work any longer becouse of a bug in the Ubuntu package (but it has worked previously in 8.10). With the Ubuntu package of TomBoy, there is no difference between TomBoy or Gnote, neither software has a working synchronization. And that TomBoy falsly report this feature in the context of Ubuntu package. If not, this would have been an issue for upstream, wouldn't it? Ordinary Ubuntu users uses Ubuntu becouse it is easy to use and a friendly distribution. They do not know, and don't want to know, how to add a repository to be able to use TomBoy as it was ment to be used. They want it to just work, better than software in bug #1. To achive this, small bugs like this should be fixed. Perhaps in a simpler way than in the pathches, so not to introduce new bugs, as that was one argument against fixing the bug in 9.04. But to demand that users of Ubuntu should read this forum and/or add another repository is not a propper fix, it's a (social) hack around this bug. I am greatfull for people putting work into solving problems in software I like to use, like you and Bryan does. But repository hacks like Bryans should only be needed for back ports of new features, not fixing existing bugs in existing software in released versions of Ubuntu. Espesially when a bug is properly reported, identified and has some patches solving it. I would agree that backporting new features is a bad idea. But not fixing the error is not a good idea either. I am suggestion Ubuntu to my students, as a better working system. But small bugs like this is not helping me doing my part fixing bug #1. Any way, as there looks like there is no responces from package owners, I will not write any more about this. -- Tomboy tries to load fuse module in Jaunty...and can't https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
