Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager
When running the update manager to install new versions of packages or a new version of the distribution, conflicts between configuration files are shown to the user in a GUI and the user has to decide whether to keep the old version or use the new version. For this, it is possible to show the differences, but this is shown in native diff-output format and thus extremely hard to read, especially for unexperienced users. When update manager is running in graphical mode, this should be shown in side-by side format that shows the differences in a more user friendly way, e.g. similar to the output of kdiff3 or the version comparison features in eclipse or netbeans. ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Difference between configuration files should be shown more friendly during update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153886 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
