The question is, why be fixated on one specific client? There are multiple clients, and most of the time, handing the URL to a pastebin site instead of asking the users to install yet another software is much more straight forward and helpful. In the channels I hang out often enough a pastebin URL is part of the topic to point people at.
I'm not really that much convinced that this is the best approach to the issue. Why not tell users instead the URL to the sites and use the web interface which is capable of what they might need directly? Is it because they might be stuck without a graphical environment? Is it that common of an issue to hook into yet another dependency/recommends/suggests loop. Also, you point out, fedora has something installed by default - that doesn't sound like it's done through a dependency, is it? Just some thoughts. :) Rhonda -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to xchat-gnome in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993378 Title: pastebinit sould be a dependency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/993378/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
