1) slim has not been packaged. Additionally, we have to entertain the possibility that someone might have both GNOME and LXDE installed, in which case they need the latest GDM. 2) wicd has been packaged, but is not in-line with Ubuntu's approach of relying upon Network-Manager for everything, hence why we need nm-applet. 3) aumix-gtk could be usable, but would need a major load of package dependency backflips to work around the fact that Ubuntu has become a PulseAudio-enabled distribution, because a PA-enabled distribution avoids touching ALSA directly. -- [needs packaging] lubuntu desktop meta https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420513 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
