@ shane fagan: Very valid reasons yes, but F-Spot isn't valid enough to touch up pictures. There is no possibilities for include (delete) pixels like lines, text, boxes etc. F-Spot is not a paint-program. If Gimp has to go out, it should be changed by another, but more simple, one. Otherwise Ubuntu isn't a Full-Package-Operating-System no more... it's missing a program for moving some pixels if somebody needs it.
For better understand: Somebody takes a screenshot or want to manipulate a photo with some circles, lines and text. That person won't find nothing for do it in the menus. If this person is in a place without internet, he can't download a usable program for it. So he/she can't do his work and feels limited. It's a very simple example, but it shows the anger what peoples can got from this decision. I think it's important to find a alternative raster- program, simple, but included by the first start after installing Ubuntu ... It's not invalid - in my opinion it's important and a usability- issue. -- No Gimp in Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/487135 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
