Excellent analysis Robin! One more thing to note here is OWNER ship issue. 1. Linux Kernel 2. X Windows 3. GNOME/KDE 4. Firefox 5. Drivers etc
All these software pieces are OWNED by different individuals. Can someone tell me when was the last time they all met together in a room? I have been using Ubuntu since Drapper (5.10) days. Every time I do apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade my system would break or become instable. Just yesterday, I did apt-get update & upgrade on Hardy and I get into this "polkituser" hell. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=718910&highlight=polkituser And when I suggested a way to prevent this issue at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/10915/ they (developers) are apathetic to the idea! -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 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
