[00:50] <Curly_Q> Has anyone here used Ubuntu with an ircd or Bahamut IRC server?
[00:51] <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.
[00:52] <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.
[00:53] <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.
[00:54] <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
[00:55] <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?
[00:56] <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.
[00:57] <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)
[01:00] <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?
[01:01] <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
[01:02] <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
[01:03] <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
[01:04] <cjwatson> because, well, we have to keep our job manageable somehow!

[15:53] <flower> am I missing something?

[21:17] <flower> come on, no one?
