as my Main Inclusion Request for Mlter got refused thanks to people with no solution. I noticed that there is some packages or machine drivers install packages from outside Main and some times form outside Ubuntu repo like the case with printing drivers.

Re: [Bug 562130] Re: Selecting an RTL language should install RTL capable terminal emulator
@Shlomi, I never proposed an approach to dealing with the problem, I just said what we should do in order to find the right approach In the meanwhile I support adding the MLTerm as default, this will give us the temporary solution we need until we can get vte to work as expected...

Re: [Bug 562130] Re: Selecting an RTL language should install RTL capable terminal emulator
The problem with this bug report you opened, is that it doesn't show the problem and tries to find a solution, but gives a solution as the only thing may happen. as i said in my blog post, and as i was backuped, the Terminal is NOT supposed to support RTL languages, as it is not for dummy users, but for more advanced. the real solution is to find a way removing all language translations from the CLI. 2010/4/22 Shlomil > Usama: > Yes.

[Bug 562130] Re: Selecting an RTL language should install RTL capable terminal emulator
Usama: Yes. MLTerm is ugly - it doesn't have Gome-terminal's options, menu, scroll-bar, opacity and other features. The reason is simple enough - it's not a Gnome application. it was written directly in X API (AFAIK). If MLTerm will be ever included in RTL installations by default as this bug suggests then it should be known and agreed that it's only a temporary solution - a workaround for the real problem. Besides that, as Yaron said before, I think people are entitled to hold their own opinion and speak of it publicly. You have a different opinion and I respect that. Yaron: If we want to fix Gnome-terminal we should first come up with a design that Behdad Esfahbod will approve. He will accept a patch only if it is using the "right approach" to solve the problem. Behdad claims that none of the existing terminal emulators he knows solve the problem correctly. I can only guess that he knows about the existence of MLTerm as RTL enabled terminal and he probably found some flaws in it's methods of dealing with RTL text. -- Selecting an RTL language should install RTL capable terminal emulator https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
