OK, I had the wrong impression that the lazarus docs where editable only
by insiders, as the main site seems to be.
So:
by posting forum messages
Done
and submitting news items
How?
, anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can edit the Lazarus readmes and
release notes on the wiki
Done,
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus#Ubuntu_.2F_Debian
anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can request updates of the debian debs
in the debian bug tracker.
I don't think this is necessary
There are no notes on sourceforge to be edited or updated, so nobody
can do that.
Could be useful
Anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can spread this everywhere else.
Done. (Ubuntu Forums)
Do you get it?
No, I would like to see this as a news item and on the FAQs on the main
site.
But it looks like you are understimating the importance of this bug:
1. Potential user (i.e. potential contributor) install lazarus.
2. Potential user launches lazarus and sees an ugly interface
3. Potential user searches around and finds out that he can rebuild
lazarus with GTK2 interface
4. Potential user rebuilds lazarus and... the rebuild doesn't work
5. Potential user thinks: I knew it was to good to be true
6. Potential user is neither user nor potential anymore
Servus,
Giovanni
