[Bug 1005372] Re: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal
@micahg The strange thing is, according to http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/precise/conky-all , the conky-all currently in precise repo (conky-all 1.8.1-6) also has the missing build-dependencies libkvm-dev and libdevstat-dev! libxnvctrl-dev is also missing but nvidia-settings can replace it. Wonder how this package got into precise repos, if it can't be built! o_O The devs must've workarounded it during the 12.04 development cycle. Trusty also has the same problem of libxnvctrl-dev - http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/conky-all , but the package is now in trusty-backports: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports /libxnvctrl-dev -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to Precise Backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005372 Title: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/precise-backports/+bug/1005372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

@micahg I can do the testing if it's backported. I haven't erased my old 12.04LTS "Precise" installation yet. Kept it around for testing stuff like this :-) But I don't think anybody misses the conky-all package on 12.04LTS anymore, coz all the other conky binary packages from 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒌𝒚 source package got backported: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/conky . Back then conky-all was built from a separate source package 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒌𝒚-𝒂𝒍𝒍, and so got left out: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/conky-all . But this problem won't happen again, coz from conky 1.9.0-5 upstream Debian merged 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒌𝒚-𝒂𝒍𝒍 into 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒌𝒚 source package. See: https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/conky . So they'll get updated together from now on. Unfortunately, Ubuntu 14.04LTS "Trusty" ships conky 1.9.0-4 . So if trusty gets a backport, there's a chance that this may repeat again :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to Precise Backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005372 Title: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/precise-backports/+bug/1005372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

Now that it's way past 12.04LTS's active support period and nearing EOL in one and half years, shouldn't this bug be dropped or marked as won't fix? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to Precise Backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005372 Title: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/precise-backports/+bug/1005372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
[Bug 1368094] Re: Please backport openjdk-8 8u40~b04-2 (universe) from utopic
Now that Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic" is EOL'd, is backporting utopic's openjdk8 a good idea? Isn't it better to have Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf"'s OpenJDK 8u66-b01-4 backported? See the latest openjdk-8 package in Ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-8 . Or better, since the next LTS (Ubuntu 16.04LTS) is just 6 months away, why not backport from it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to trusty-backports.

[Bug 1005372] Re: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal
i'm using conky-all 1.9.0.2 from your Vincent Cheng's Conky PPA() and it works fine,even better than the one in Ubuntu repos conky-all 1.8. It's recommended to use conky 1.9 over 1.8 as the latter has some serious problems. Recently conky,conky-std and conky-cli versions 1.9.0.2 were backported to Ubuntu Precise repos. But conky-all was left out. Since Vincent Cheng's request had no response for 2 months and conky-all is still the old version in precise, i'm requesting a backport for conky-all 1.9 to Precise. I hope conky-all 1.9 will make it into Precise repos before relese of Ubuntu 12.04.4 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to Precise Backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005372 Title: Please backport conky 1.9.0-2 (universe) and conky-all 1.9.0-2 (multiverse) from quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/precise-backports/+bug/1005372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
