This discussion has no bearing at all on whether a text web browser is apt-gettable. There are already three of them in main (w3m, links, elinks), and even if w3m were moved out of main, it would still be apt-gettable. My proposal has only to do with removing it from the default installation on desktops. -- - mdz -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
