Is it possible to upgrade gparted to 0.3.3 or 0.3.4 ?

2007-02-12 Thread Jan Claeys
It seems like Feisty still only has GParted 0.2.5, while 0.3.3 should fix all known NTFS-resizing & -moving bugs and probably also some other issues listed in launchpad. It might be useful to update GParted, even though Debian still has version 0.2.5 too, for some reason? BTW: version 0.3.4 shou

2007-02-12 Thread Andrew Jorgensen
If I understand correctly they're reluctant to move to a new gparted because of the integration with the installer. There are some compelling bugs in 0.2.5 though. On 2/12/07, Jan Claeys <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It seems like Feisty still only has GParted 0.2.5, while 0.3.3 should > fix all k

2007-02-12 Thread Matt Zimmerman
The Feisty installer will no longer use gparted. However, as version 0.2.5 is still current in Debian unstable, it will only be updated in Ubuntu if someone steps forward to package and upload the new version. On Mon, Feb 12, 2007 at 02:02:36PM -0700, Andrew Jorgensen wrote: > If I understand cor

I brought this up on #gnome-hackers a while back. I absolutely agree that crash data should be sent to a crash service instead, and bugs should be created and linked to one or more crashes as a result, when someone with technical knowledge can analyse what's going on. On Tue, 2007-02-13 at 14:02 +
