We have not made any decisions about whether this program would be based on PackageKit, Add/Remove Applications, Synaptic, or something else, or written from scratch.

That Ubuntu ships with two gratuitously inconsistent tools for the same general task is one of the worst problems with the current situation. With rare exceptions, having "easy" and "advanced" tools for the same task makes sense only for software companies that are charging different prices for them. - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknUdsIACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecrOxACgm+/zcE+K9IsJm5JeImSmctVp xRQAoL5fUJE05RpJwMtzroFDbd5vTj/L =61Py -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
