Looks like LXDE is now called LXQt, a combo of the GTK+ and Qt5 versions of the project. ldxe.org is dead; lxqt.org is alive. Other than already having Qt installed, would LXQt have any advantages for the (future) adoption of a more recent version of Qt in Rivendell? ++hobbitt On Wed, Jun 17,

To Ubuntu's credit I really liked upstarts ability to recover from crashes and start/stop/restart services based on whatever crashed. Although I must admit that other than the time I sat there kill'ing processes to test the upstart scripts, the stuff I was using never crashed anyway.
