I think it would be very welcome for UbuntuStudio. To be honest, I think the current way things are saves us from ourselves as almost all of the apps in each meta are depends rather than recommends. So if things were set up so the user could remove a meta, removing any one of the apps would remove the whole meta too. So I look forward to it, but also realize it would mean a lot of testing to make sure things worked the way we intended. A personal note. I think with the size of disks any more there is less reason for removing a meta once installed than in the past. Installing less in the first place still has it's place. uninstalling an app that causes trouble with other software is different again. A fair number of people remove pulse rather than learn how to use pulse and jack together well. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
