Ubuntu Open week is coming for community-driven teams to explain their
work. I do think it is a great opportunity to promote Ubuntu Studio.
Lubuntu is already planning a session as I know...

So...

1. Are we gonna have a session and
2. Who is going to do it?

It will be on October 24th and 25th. We can have an hour all to ourselves.

So tell us in ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com that you want to do it:P

Thanks to all.

Regards,
Howard Chan (smartboyhw)

For what it is worth, my mother (who knows not much about computers) feels
the same and has gotten rid of her hotmail account too.

Application Review Board Election Poll

2012-10-04 Thread Allison Randal
I've sent out an election poll to Ubuntu Developers for newly nominated
and returning members of the Application Review Board. The poll will
close on Monday, Oct 15th. If you didn't receive a poll request email
and should have, let me know.

We still have a few more open seats, so we're also running a second
round of nominations through the week of UDS (often a good place to find
new recruits).

Re: Why are there dependencies that aren't actually dependencies on some packages?

Jeremy has already given you an answer that will probably be more to
your liking.  However, I'd like to point out that this aspect of the
package dependencies in precise is precisely correct given how the
binary is built.  Looking at /usr/bin/brasero in precise with 'objdump
-p', I see:

Dynamic Section:
...
  NEEDED   liblaunchpad-integration-3.0.so.1

Since this is a normal straightforward dynamic link, the binary
literally will not start without that library being present.  So feel
free to complain about the binary being built such that it's linked
against that library (and Jeremy's post completely addresses that for
12.10), but given that linkage the dependency is absolutely correct.

While it's possible to arrange things such that dynamically-linked
libraries are loaded conditionally at run-time, it's a fair bit of work,
rather cumbersome, and can often end up introducing bugs.  So, in the
case of a library whose total .deb size (liblaunchpad-integration1 +
liblaunchpad-integration-common) weighs in under 16KiB, we often don't
feel that it's worth making that kind of thing optional.  Of course I'm
glad to see it go since it makes it easier to stay in sync with Debian
and thus makes the system as a whole that bit easier to maintain.

Cheers,
