Point me to something, anything, that documents what ubufox does and I'll be happy to write a description.
>it allows you to change settings in the advanced setting page "about:config" Firefox already allows changing settings in about:config, without ubufox. The question is what changes are made by ubufox. >We are pretty much unable to get less general since ubufox has default settings that we ship and there are way too many Saying that the package does too much to document is pretty lame, IMHO. Rather, it's even more important to document them. >It is not possible at this point to install firefox without GTK apps/libs since there is not yet a qt version. No one is suggesting to install firefox without GTK, and trying to write it in QT is silly. In fact, the problem isn't firefox at all. The description says that it's adding "apt support", but that description is misleading. The problem is the additional GNOME dependencies that apturl drags in. What's really going on is that ubufox depends on a GNOME graphical interface to the apt protocol. There are three alternative tacks to take. (1) If ubufox and apturl don't do anything that is specific to GNOME, drop the dependency on the GNOME packages in apturl; (2) Change apturl to a Recommends dependency rather than a Depends (which probably makes sense in any event); and (3) (germane to this bug report) Provide a more accurate description of what the apturl dependency does. E.g., "ubufox also depends on apturl, which is a GNOME graphical interface to the apt protocol allowing installation of software using a URL of the software repository." Again, if ubufox were documented somewhere, the community could help. -- Loye Young Isaac & Young Computer Company Laredo, Texas loye.yo...@iycc.net 956.857.1172 -- 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
