Public bug reported:
I removed network-manager and bootchart and a few other things after
upgrading since they weren't fixed or annoying or whatever, and now
lucid will not boot.
Single user (recovery) didn't come up the first time (until I removed a
uuid line from grub), and it tries to start networking but it needs the
wireless AP. It futilely tried DHCP though. I typed the commands after
it came up and it worked.
I also have usplash and xsplash deinstalled but still get that annoying
graphic at times.
When you make changes is it too much to ask that it still work when I
remove all the new junk?
I filed a bug report back under hardy or before about network-manager,
or at least the applet taking minutes to refresh or find APs that have
been up and around for 5 minutes while keeping a stale list of 100
around and it is still not fixed in lucid, so I'm using wicd. But the
"dist-upgrade" reinstalled the network manager. And notify-osd is still
broken (stays up forever, takes too much space, can't move or dismiss
it). If I specifically deinstalled it, and you haven't fixed the
problems with it, why do you put it back when I'm upgrading, not wiping
and reinstalling?
I also got rid of all the mono junk and it put that back in.
There are enough in the community that have to change your "one size
fits all" ubuntu to tune it for their use, and you are fighting them by
undoing the changes arbitrarily. If I want to upgrade something, I want
it upgraded, not have the stuff I removed put back.
