I, personally, find all chat programs to be useless fluff... but if I you MUST keep one, I would vote for whichever one is smallest. :) -- Todd Carnes ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

It already takes care of your first two points and the merits of the "app is theme-able" are debatable, at best. -- Todd Carnes ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I wanted to remove them (as well as Abiword & Gnumeric), but when I tell Synaptic to get rid of them, it says that it must remove lubuntu-desktop as well. So, not wanting to destroy an otherwise great system, I cancel out of it. It does irk me though that lubuntu presumes to know better than I what is needed on my system and threatens to self-destruct if I don't do as it says. -- Todd Carnes ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
