that's ok for dumb users but not for people like me - so I will switch back to Debian. I'm sorry to leave ubuntu, because I thought it was a really good distro, but if you don't get the package dependencies right, there's not much point trying to make a distro at all. -- Upgrade from karmic to l

One of the other workarounds would have been a lot better. This bug bit me with the released version of lucid, and I don't really appreciate having to spend however many hours hacking around it to fix package dependencies. It bit me because instead of doing a dist-upgrade, I just did apt-get inst

I must say I find the response of the maintainer here totally unacceptable. This bug should be marked release-critical not wishlist. The bug-fix should be released to the ubuntu security distributions. What is the point of protecting your system from outside attacks when the system itself will att

BUMP! damn this stupid program Please configure slay NOT to be in mean mode, and not to kill the user's own processes if they accidentally run it without sudo. It's not funny, please fix this stupid program. Since when is it acceptable to kill all the user's processes as a kind of twisted joke

I experienced this problem also, when attempting to encode a movie using H.264 in an mp4 container (if I recall correctly). It should be reproducible with this configuration.

Originally this bug report did not refer to the automatic opening of external content, it got hijacked. So it's not a duplicate of bug 33038. When downloading files, firefox puts them to /tmp, instead of the Desktop. This happens for files where you choose "open" instead of "save as". One more re
