Yes you're right. Eg on 16.04 I don't have Hugo installed (Hugo is a snap) and in Ubuntu Software Hugo does have a "details" page but it doesn't give the source.

Two of the listings are installed (so for the snap?) and one is not installed (so for the non snap?). I also see that I'm not able to install the vlc snap (because it's not available for i386).

[Bug 1651233] [NEW] Inconsistent terminology for USB flash drive
Public bug reported:
In the desktop help (development version - and very likely 16.10 too)
the terminology for USB flash drive is inconsistent. For example:
disk-format.html refers to "USB memory stick"
files-share.html refers to "USB flash drive"
backup-where.html refers to "USB memory key"
backup-why.html refers to "USB drive"
etc
This is confusing for users. I suggest we use just the most common term
("USB flash drive"?) and not give any of the synonyms.
Wikipedia seems to favour "USB flash drive":

Public bug reported: The page mouse-middleclick.html gives a link to: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#A2-button_Mice It seems to be a software workaround for a hardware bug that affects some mice (presumably pressing the left and right mouse buttons at the same time doesnt generate middle-click until the workaround is applied). Is the hardware bug still common? Are the instructions still correct? If yes to both questions then I think the software workaround should be incorporated into the desktop help (we shouldn't be relying on a link into the middle of an old wiki page - eg I know what "natty and newer" means but people new to Ubuntu won't know). ** Affects: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631718 Title: Middle-click emulation quirk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1631718/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1599264] Re: [SRU] "When power is critically low" setting does nothing
Hi Gunnar, I take your point that I'm going beyond fixing this bug - but that (ideally) is what a good tech writer does. I think here's the answer to my question (link below). The default setting is "suspend" - yes I've checked 16.04 and that is correct. However, there's a bug so that when the setting is "suspend" Ubuntu shuts down when power is critically low. So can I fix this bug and also state that ubuntu by default shuts down when power is critically low? I believe that unless the user fiddles with the gnome settings, which aren't documented in the desktop help, there's no possibility of suspend, so can I remove the info about suspend on this page.

Hi Gunnar, I'm proposing to make minor changes to the following pages: addremove-install.html addremove-remove.html disk-partitions.html As regards installing and removing applications I'm proposing to say that there are two package formats: Debian packages and snap packages. In order to install or remove an application available as a snap package the user has to log on to Ubuntu One. Snap packages have advantages over Debian packages (I'm not planning to say what they are) so it's recommended that where there's a choice of format the user installs the snap package, which should be the first of the two applications listed.

Hi Will, could you give the Docs Team some guidance about what to say about snaps in the the 17.04 desktop help? A user of the desktop help will typically install and remove packages using Ubuntu Software (not the command line). So as regards the desktop help I'm only concerned about how snaps affect the GUI. My main concern is to avoid confusing people who read the desktop help (which includes people who follow procedures in the desktop help). As I understand it the sources of possible confusion are: 1. Some packages are listed twice in Ubuntu Software (one is the snap and one is the deb package). In such a case how does the user know which to install? What do we say in the 17.04 desktop help? 2. When users try to install a snap via Ubuntu Software they get asked to log on to Ubuntu One. The 16.10 desktop help documents installing packages using Ubuntu Software but doesn't document log on to Ubuntu One. What do we say in the 17.04 desktop help? 3. The 16.10 desktop help mentions that the Disks application lists "hard disks, CD/DVD drives, and other physical devices", - I'm reading this as meaning everything listed is a physical device - which is not true any more since at present Disks lists snaps too.

[Bug 1658785] [NEW] Snap documentation in 17.04?
Public bug reported: Do we say anything about snaps in the 17.04 desktop help and if so what do we say? If snaps are experimental and subject to change then perhaps we should say nothing? Below I give some points about snaps worth thinking about (as regards how we document them): The logon to Ubuntu One in Ubuntu Software when one tries to install a snap will surely create confusion. I saw one example on the #ubuntu channel where people were confused by it (with good reason in my opinion). At present you don't have to logon to Ubuntu One if you install a snap from the command line. Why are Ubuntu Software and the command line treated differently in this respect? I don't know much about snaps but in the manual for the snap command there are options to buy a snap and log on to the snap store. I would imagine that at present there are no snaps that one has to pay for - but there will be soon? Snaps are visible in the Disks application as "devices".

[Bug 1651233] Re: Inconsistent terminology for USB flash drive
@Gunnar. When the status is set to Opinion this bug drops off the list of ubuntu-docs bugs. I think the bug is worth keeping in mind. Can we set the status so that it stays on the list?

[Bug 1654238] [NEW] Switch to "English (United States)" doesn't work correctly
Public bug reported: I wanted to switch from "English (United Kingdom)" to "English (United States)". Ubuntu 16.04.

[Bug 1637861] Re: Description of Ubuntu Software needs update
I had a quick look at this. Ubuntu Software seems to list a wide selection of packages (it uses the term "application" but some of the things it lists are not in my opinion applications). It doesn't restrict itself to particular repositories. For example, I see that some packages from Multiverse and Universe are listed. I see that it doesn't list fop (from Universe) or docbook (again from Universe). I think this point about missing packages is a general problem (it won't just confuse writers looking for fop or docbook). For example, mbrola (from Multiverse) - something to do with speech synthesis - sounds as if it might have a small group of enthusiasts - but Ubuntu Software doesn't list it (though confusingly it does list a frontend to mbrola).

Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Spamassassin 3.4.0-1ubuntu2.1
What should happen:
sa-update should run on the daily cron job without error
What does happen:
sa-update fails with error:
could not find working mirror, channel failed
The problem is related to perl's wonky threading. The fork call in sa-
update that utilizes curl/wget/fetch to retrieve data results in the
child process immediately dying from a SIGPIPE signal.
Adding the following at line 132 fixes the problem:
$SIG{PIPE} = 'IGNORE';
I can't vouch for whether that is the RIGHT thing to do, but it seems ok
in context and does allow sa-update to run.
I will attach before and after logs running sa-update as configured by
the package's daily cron task. (note that between the two runs I also
updated the gpg key).

[Bug 1354825] Re: release upgrades from an LTS with normal set should offer next LTS if next normal release is EoL
I had the same problem, it was NOT related to the prompt value. The only way that I managed to fix it was to uninstall and purge update- manager-core (which will remove update-notifier-common) and then reinstall it. After that upgrade proceeded normally. (I did manually delete the /var/lib/update-manager and /var/lib/update-notifier directories as the purge command refused to). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1354825 Title: release upgrades from an LTS with normal set should offer next LTS if next normal release is EoL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1354825/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 997402] Re: Buying software is impossible
I seem to have been experiencing this problem today, while trying to install Ryzom (free to purchase) from the Software Centre. Message read: Processing your request for "Ryzom"... Information received. I let this hang for about an hour, but the game does not seem to have installed. Using Ubuntu 12.04.

[Bug 997402] Re: Buying software is impossible
Hi Gary, thanks for your quick response. I have received the notification email, and when I return to Software Centre I have the option to install. However, when I try to do so I get the error: "Install requires installation of untrusted package" I have then followed the instructions here: [url=https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pay/FAQs/Missing_GPG_Key]https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pay/FAQs/Missing_GPG_Key[/url] But this gets me a further error - gksudo: unrecognised option '-- keyserver' - followed by a list of command options. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997402 Title: Buying software is impossible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/997402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Additional: the notification email gave me a link to "Technical details about your purchase", and I added the software source linked prior to attempting installation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997402 Title: Buying software is impossible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/997402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
