[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 258038] Re: Look into feasibility of using an alternatives system rather than diversions
Looking forward a few months, I'd like to not have this bug open after Lucid. I think we need to come to a decision on it and either implement it for the LTS, or else decide to stay with the current system and close this bug. This would be a pretty significant change, so might be a bit ambitious for an LTS (really, I guess we should have done it in karmic, but way too late now) but the benefit in terms of making it easier for users to switch between drivers could well be worth it. I think doing this post- LL would be detrimental since it would inhibit being able to backport patches, drivers, etc. to the LTS, so if we do not implement it for LL I think we should just decide not to do it (at least, not until the next LTS-1). I'm not 100% certain how to undertake this change, as it is a touch beyond my packaging-fu, but Mario I assume you'll be at the UDS in Dallas? Would you like to work out an implementation plan for it there? -- Look into feasibility of using an alternatives system rather than diversions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/258038 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
