[Bug 112511] Re: Backport Pidgin 2.0.0 Final to Fiesty
I guess it should be backported as fast as possible. Feisty is a final (stable) release, and the amount of beta packages on it should be minimized. And since gaim is no longer mantained (only pidgin), it sould be a good idea to backport the latest stable release it to get upstream support (and also a more stable version). I don't think we should wait for all the plugins to be released for pidgin since most of the people doesn't use any of them at all or only 2 or 3 (like guifications and extended prefs). Anyway, I think most of the users will be happy only with plain pidgin. And i really think some of the plugins will now be discontinued. And finally I don't consider not backporting some plugins a package breakage. All those plugins are recommends or suggests, not depends. Anyone who really needs a certain not-backported plugin should stick to gaim anyway. I guess backporting pidgin to feisty is only a matter of removing gaim from ubuntu-desktop (or changing it to gaim | pidgin) and repackaging it. Some upgrades might be necessary but i think people are already working on that. -- Backport Pidgin 2.0.0 Final to Fiesty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Feisty Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Some upgrades might be necessary but i think people are already working on that. acctually, when building pedgin in prevu, a gaim*deb is generated, for the sole purpose of allowing upgrades. since ubuntu-desktop depends on gaim, and the new gaim package is nothing , or than depending on pidgin (well it cleans up some things i think), the upgrade path is clean, and doesn't require ubuntu-desktop etc to be rebuilt. -- Backport Pidgin 2.0.0 Final to Fiesty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112511 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- Backport Pidgin 2.0.0 Final to Fiesty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Feisty Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Add the appropriate repository from http://www.winehq.org/site/download- deb and that will keep you up to date.
