@Erlan: No worry I can give you the rational: an updated gnome-terminal needs a newer version of libvte, which isn't an option to update as more than 39 packages are depending on it. By experience, it's more than possible that it will break another since. This is why we need to be picky on updates (even with stable updates) as it can contain a lot of regression code. -- wget does not use network proxy in some cases https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232469 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
