| chrisccoulson | hmmm, that sucks. so, it seems that update-manager does not handle package conflicts at all (whereas apt-get upgrade does just fine) | 10:35 |
|---|---|---|
| knome | chrisccoulson, btw, what about the xubuntu-specific browser start page? :) | 10:44 |
| chrisccoulson | i don't really have time for that right now ;) | 10:44 |
| knome | yes, i know, but really, i've been bugging you about it the whole cycle, but you haven't replied | 10:46 |
| chrisccoulson | that's because i'm busy | 10:48 |
| knome | can you give me suggestion on how to get this going forward then? | 10:49 |
| knome | i'm taking any suggestions | 10:56 |
| chrisccoulson | i can't right now, i've got other stuff i need to do. and there are other non-technical issues with modifying the startpage | 11:02 |
| chrisccoulson | for starters, i'm not even sure you can redistribute it with a modified startpage | 11:02 |
| knome | once you have time, could you comment on our bug #332687 with all your doubts, and i'll try to deal this with somebody with time on their hands | 11:04 |
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 332687 in xubuntu-docs "Create a Xubuntu-specific browser start page" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/332687 | 11:04 |
| knome | please? | 11:04 |
| chrisccoulson | knome, i've spoken to somebody in our legal department regarding startpage modifications for derivatives | 15:34 |
| chrisccoulson | basically, the startpage is considered part of the bundle that mozilla have approved us to distribute, and derivatives are free to distribute that too | 15:34 |
| chrisccoulson | but modifications to that require approval from mozilla, and that's not the sort of thing that canonical would do on behalf of a derivative | 15:35 |
| chrisccoulson | so, basically, you need to talk to somebody from mozilla if you want to change the default start page in xubuntu | 15:36 |
| knome | do you have any pointer who on mozilla would that be? | 15:38 |
| chrisccoulson | knome, not offhand. i would suggest having a look at http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/policy.html | 15:39 |
| knome | okay, thanks. | 15:39 |
| chrisccoulson | trademarks@mozilla.com might be a good start | 15:40 |
| knome | if we get a permission from mozilla, where are we then? | 15:40 |
| knome | will you be able to help us to fix our start page at that point | 15:40 |
| chrisccoulson | yes | 15:40 |
| knome | thanks | 15:40 |
| knome | i'll paste this conversation to the bug if that's okay for you (starting from the beginning) ? | 15:41 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: there's no problems with other apps using the startpage unchanged though, is there? (like midori or epiphany-browser) | 15:42 |
| chrisccoulson | knome, yeah, i think that's ok. the channel is logged anyway ;) | 15:42 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg, i'm not too sure what you mean :) | 15:43 |
| knome | thanks | 15:43 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg, you mean other apps using the same startpage as we use in firefox? | 15:43 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: midori's start page is broke since we removed the old static page from ubuntu-docs | 15:44 |
| micahg | yes, use the same one as Firefox | 15:44 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, that's fine | 15:44 |
| chrisccoulson | fantastic. after upgrading from 13.0a1 to 14.0a1, the restart button actually worked correctly | 16:03 |
