Missing context. You appear to have replied to the thread in the wrong mailing list? I know Steve Langasek but he's not subscribed to this mailing list, and if your intent was to bring this mailing list into the discussion, it would've been better to add this mailing list so that there could've been some sort of trail to follow, i.e. we could've seen the previous messages for some context. That said, I'm at least tangentially aware of the frescobaldi situation. Frescobaldi isn't a package we carry in Ubuntu Studio. Ubuntu Studio is merely a different default installation of Ubuntu, otherwise it's completely Ubuntu once installed and not a separate distribution. Therefore, there's no need to go through Ubuntu Studio for the issues you're having. Steve is one of the highest-ranking developers in Ubuntu (above even me), so you're already talking to the right people. -- Erich Eickmeyer Project Leader - Ubuntu Studio Ubuntu MOTU
