| Curly_Q | Has anyone here used Ubuntu with an ircd or Bahamut IRC server? | 00:50 |
| cjwatson | I think you might want to ask somewhere else; that doesn't sound related to the Ubuntu installer | 00:51 |
| Curly_Q | I have a few more questions though. | 00:51 |
| CIA-4 | debian-installer: cjwatson * r1096 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 20081029ubuntu36 | 00:52 |
| Curly_Q | What are the advantages if any of Ubuntu over BSD or Debian? | 00:52 |
| cjwatson | #ubuntu, please | 00:52 |
| cjwatson | I'm absolutely not getting into the great distribution debates here | 00:52 |
| Curly_Q | It is not a debate. It was a question. | 00:52 |
| cjwatson | it's off-topic on this channel, sorry | 00:53 |
| Curly_Q | I was on the #Ubuntu channel. There are almost 2,000 people. That is too many people for one IRC channel. | 00:53 |
| cjwatson | I'm sorry you feel that way, but that doesn't make it on-topic here | 00:54 |
| cjwatson | this channel is specifically about the Ubuntu installer | 00:54 |
| Curly_Q | My other question has to do with POSIX compliancy. Is Ubuntu POSIX compliant in it's installation? | 00:55 |
| Curly_Q | Does Ubuntu have a C POSIX compiler for installation? | 00:55 |
| cjwatson | Generally Ubuntu, like pretty much all Linux distributions, is POSIX-compliant, although we haven't been certified as such. (Still not on-topic here.) | 00:56 |
| cjwatson | Please use Google. | 00:56 |
| cjwatson | (and that's an approximate statement, there are probably small areas where we fail compliance, but as a general rule I'd expect people to be unlikely to run into them) | 00:57 |
| Curly_Q | Well, the problem I have had and am curious about is that I tried to install a Linux distro and use the latest C Compiler and followed all of the manuals and then found out that Linux versions are not compatible with the original question I asked. If I install Ubuntu should I compile it first with a C compiler? | 01:00 |
| cjwatson | please ask this question elsewhere. As noted in the topic, this is a channel for developers. | 01:01 |
| cjwatson | I'm sure there are appropriate places where you can find help, perhaps the Ubuntu forums | 01:01 |
| Curly_Q | I don't see how anyone can develop anything if they cannot answer basic questions. That is beyond me. | 01:02 |
| cjwatson | the standard Ubuntu installation process does not involve the user compiling anything. | 01:02 |
| cjwatson | basic questions about something not related to the topic of this channel? | 01:02 |
| cjwatson | I'm happy to assist people with problems they're having installing Ubuntu | 01:02 |
| Curly_Q | I'm sorry I asked. Have a nice day. | 01:03 |
| cjwatson | but once the system is up and running, it's outside the remit of #ubuntu-installer | 01:03 |
| cjwatson | because, well, we have to keep our job manageable somehow! | 01:04 |
