Partner is often more restricted than restricted; I think in this case we should think of restricted as having its dictionary meaning, rather than identifying it with the (arguably misnamed) component. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

ubuntu-restricted-extras Most of the stuff in ubuntu-restricted-extras is either not restricted or in partner now. Perhaps this should be broken out into ubuntu-extras and ubuntu-restricted-extras? Micah Another issue is that it looks like it is pulling in the FOSS version of java, rather than the restricted version from sun/oracle. I think that is a confusing setup. Maybe this stemmed from the idea that java is open source now, so openjdk should be the same. But that isn't true [1]. And I happen to be aware of more specifically that there are issues with Java2D [2].

What I meant was that to me restricted in the metapackage name simply means that the packages it depends on generally have some kind of restrictions on them beyond what's normally considered free software. I think this reading might even be more natural for people not immersed in Ubuntu development. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
