There is no error handling or any way to pause or to redo a step in your
script. So it will likely break a lot of systems.

Re: GIMP *final* release for Gutsy?

  It boils down to this:  If users aren't running into bugs, why repackage?
 
 Because having “Release Conadidate” on the splash screen and “rc” in the 
 About box gives users the impression that this is not a trustworthy, 
 final version of GIMP.

Is there a bug filed against the incorrect string Conadidate? If that
bug gets fixed, then the splash screen image will have to be changed
anyway.

Re: Access denied (403) when trying to fetch security updates for Dapper

 We should never have to do this; there are some shortcomings in the
 infrastructure which currently require some manual hacking in situations
 like this.  There is work in progress to improve that.

Out of curiosity, what is being done?  Is there a specification, etc...?

I see it now. I never noticed it there. Is there any reason it cannot 
also be placed under the right click too?-Patrick

Re: Benefit of Compiz to audio work?

2007-11-18 Thread Cory K.
There looks to be many opinions on either side of this question. I have
also involved the LinuxAudio.org ML and it looks as varied as here.

http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/consortium/2007-November/001826.html

So we're still out on this decision and welcome more opinions.

Re: GIMP *final* release for Gutsy?

2007-11-18 Thread Greg K Nicholson
There is a bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/145524

It seems that this is a feature, not a bug.

Re: apt-cacher in main

 But I have not tried it yet.

It will be interesting to follow its progress. apt-cacher-ng (presumably 
next generation) is more than  simple rewrite of Apt-Cacher. It was 
redesigned from scratch and is  written in C++ with main focus on 
maximizing throughput with low  requirements on system resources.

It is going to be in hardy, in universe. Chnagelog is here:
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/a/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher-ng_0.1.1-1/changelog

I will be going forward with proposing apt-cacher for main in Hardy as 
its a LTS release. I'll be writing up the MIR this week.

Cheers,

Fabian
