Hi everybody,
I found some recent comments about the bug 1165200. I will try if it
would help to add a python and a gudev library (it does for some people,
but not all according to the comments). If it is a general solution, I
suggest it should be fixed in the lubuntu code and trickle down to the

But they won't backport the fix to Lucid :)
Actually this app is more than a little scary in its tight
Canonical-oriented definition of "supported". If you d
Hi Jonathan,
Maybe raise a bug that says "you have zero supported packages" instead of
just dying?

Hummm, you should only trust what is said on this mailing list. Don't
trust outside sources if there is no quotes or source in this mailing

Hi,
if any packages do not receive updates (i.e. Support), it is mis-leading to
call it Long Term Support.
10.04 is there PRECISELY because of the dropping of Chip-Sets after it. It
does not receive updates to desktop applications, I'm not 100% on kernels,
as they are part of server - which is st
It is intended to upgrade to a new version when it is released. As 12.10 was
released, 12.04 became outdated, because it wasn't a LTS. Now, 12.10 is also
outdated because 13.04 is there.
And LXLE is an LTS because the creator says, he provides the updates for
packages like PCManFM. The rest is
Phill,
Thank you for your 2nd reply :)
I'm aware of that difference and this is exactly what I tell the new comers
to Lubuntu. You are not talking to one of them, by the way. I'm not an
expert but let's say I'm an average user in the middle of the road, neither
a beginner, nor an expert.
What I
Ali,
please understand the difference. anything that starts 'lx' and pcmanfm
will not receive updates in lubuntu 12.04 once it goes 'EOL' to Lubuntu.
Updates provided by 'core' systems (e.g. kernel, chomium etc.) will
continue to be available.

Phill.

Hi Ali,
in 12.04 whilst the *ubuntu* parts are LTS, the 'lubuntu' parts are not.
Also, as it was only our 2nd release the rules state that it could not be
called LTS.
In 14.04, our devs have said that they will maintain the 'lubuntu' parts
for the life of the LTS.

Phill.
