Package: tasksel
Version: 2.54
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I should have requested this earlier, so here it goes:
I've added a Recommends on Rhythmbox to pull avahi-daemon to be able
share music on the network. Please pull in avahi-daemon in tasksel's
GNOME desktop task as well as it currently doesn't pull Recommends.
Thanks,
I'm writing down the rationale below, as I'm sure some people will
question the change.
There were some people who objected to the move because of security
concerns. I believe this should work out of the box. I have a MacOSX
at home, and it listens to mdns by default. I don't have a Windows
Media thingy, but I hear it also supports UPnP by default.
This discussion was also made on the Ubuntu lists, and since Ubuntu has
gathered a greater desktop / security ratio of folks, and since
discussion are less flamy there, they had an useful discussion on the
subject as well. Their decision was to not include this feature in
dapper because of their "no open port" policy, which they didn't want
to change for the first long-term support release they were doing.
You might wonder why I'm still pushing for this feature; well, I
consider the desktop machine is not supposed to be a fortress, but
should be a place to do stuff, to work on professional documents, to
watch videos, and to listen to music. There's nothing technical in
this concept, hence my non-technical decision: it should work by
default, you should not have to turn 50 knobs on to make it work.
As a final note, I consider we lack some sort of mini-policy on open
ports. Since there's no policy, no one is setting any limit, and
perhaps I'm doing something very stupid by adding an open port by
default. I really wish that people who oppose the issue would bring it
to the tech-ctte so that we can get a ruling on "desktop feature versus
security by default with the desktop install".
Bye,
