Is there a shipped email client ? Added a section processor architectures too and tidied other sections up.

I am trying to write this for the Default options so Wayland and Gnome, so the parts about Synaptic need a few adjustments but I am sort of getting there. If the default or preferred package manager (gui) is gnome-packagekit for gnome and wayland then this is fine. If we were to fork and write this for xfce or lxde, then I guess the default window back end is X and the preferred option for package manager is synaptic. and the technical info would change accordingly. (I am getting confused just trying to write this) https://github.com/zleap/DebianPresentation/blob/master/README.md Is work so far, please feel free to e-mail over any word / text changes. So far I am editing in Overleaf, downloading the zip(source) and pdf files and uploading to github, which is not an ideal situation. I have not figured out how to do more advanced things in github, I can sort of handle pull requests but end up in a right mess. Main issue is that netbook runs Debian10 + LXDE (not my main one as I have one for testing buster on), so I am going by information I can find. I am not too sure if my netbook would handle wayland anyway. Hope this helps Regards Paul -- Paul Sutton http://www.zleap.net https://www.linkedin.com/in/zleap/ gnupg : 7D6D B682 F351 8D08 1893 1E16 F086 5537 D066 302D

It has now been patched (package in unstable) so that it provides "visual feedback while starting" (or, I suppose one might say more pertinently, not starting) as per Paul Gevers comment on April 9 in the synaptic Bug #818366 thread. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=818366 https://tracker.debian.org/news/1038187/accepted-synaptic-0846-source-amd64-into-unstable/

Buster presentation info
Hi As previously mentioned, I am working on a basic (not too technical) presentation for Buster. Following the topic here on Synaptic in Buster being replaced with gnome-packagekit I am using LaTeX beamer for this and have included part of the table source for a technical overview below: Kernel & 4.x.x & supports smb encrypted shared \\ Wayland & xxx & xx \\ Gnome & 3.x & Default Window Manager \\ gnome-packagekit & xx & Default Package Manager \\ Does anyone know the version of Wayland being used? and what other basic info could be included in a technical overview without overwhelming the viewer ? Once completed I can upload to the wiki or make generally available. Thanks Regards Paul -- Paul Sutton http://www.zleap.net https://www.linkedin.com/in/zleap/ gnupg : 7D6D B682 F351 8D08 1893 1E16 F086 5537 D066 302D
