Something like stated in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubufox/+bug/123713/comments/15
We are pretty much unble to get less general since ubufox has default settings that we ship and there are way too many.. It already states that: Description: Ubuntu Firefox specific configuration defaults and apt support Extension package for Firefox provides ubuntu specific configuration defaults as well as apt support for firefox plugins/extensions. That tells users that it is used to add extensions as well as has configurable settings. We are unable to list all settings but it allows you to change settings in the advanced setting page "about:config" But as to explain exactly what it does and what can be changed is not really able to happen since there are too many settings that can be changed. Now if you mean that the Description is not user friendly than i can understand What did you mean by the following from comment 15 link above: 2. "apt support for firefox plugins / extensions" is meaningless to someone who doesn't already know what ubufox does. It is also a bit misleading because apturl requires gnome-app-install and synaptic. Users of adept, dpkg-www, aptitude, or other apt frontends will not receive "apt support". As for the above. It is not possible at this point to install firefox without GTK apps/libs since there is not yet a qt version. This is being worked on upstream but i think they came to a point they had to stop. Once QT support is added than we can redo the depends on it to use QT apps/libs and ubufox is installed with firefox | abrowser | firefox-3.0 | firefox-2 I have also changed the browsers a bit remove 2.0 and added a few other versions. as well as updated it to work with 3.5 3.6 and such. This is only in my PPA at this time but i will most likely merge what i have to the main branch. So to have a complete description of what you would like it to be We are flying blind on it, If you can give me a reasonible way of how deep you want to go with the description than maybe we can come to a compromise but just saying what does this mean and what does that mean is a bit too open, Examples above about not being able to list everything it does is not really reasonible since it allows you to change Ubuntu config options instead of us having to ship with all/none enabled. The word "unhelpful" doesn't really tell us anything except a few people didnt understand it. It tells you you can remove it if you want the firefox we ship without the configure changes that we made using ubufox to please most people -- package description needs rewrite https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
