The new + features are ones you don't have to use if you don't want to (or if you + need to, you have no choice ...). The changes don't affect the + installer or Wubi as far as I can see. Unfortunately Debian unstable + hasn't upgraded yet so I can't simply merge, but I can do that myself if + need be. -- FFE: NTFS-3G: A new upstream version is available: 2010.8.8 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/618281 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
