| wxl | no, they don't work fine | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| simonizor[m] | Yeah, they do | 00:00 |
| simonizor[m] | I've been running it since 18.04 daily started | 00:00 |
| tsimonq2 | simonizor[m]: We *aren't* putting out a Lubuntu Next release, that's the point. | 00:00 |
| simonizor[m] | Other than a few derps on from LXQt packaging, it's been smooth | 00:00 |
| tsimonq2 | They're supported by Ubuntu for only nine months. | 00:00 |
| tsimonq2 | After that, bugs get closed as won'tfix for Bionic. | 00:01 |
| tsimonq2 | We're declaring that. | 00:01 |
| tsimonq2 | Going forward, it will be different, but we have to get the LTS out of the way. | 00:01 |
| tsimonq2 | You also have to understand that we can't just pull the packages. | 00:01 |
| tsimonq2 | Not only is it a lot of work that we don't have control to do (so it means a bug for each one), it then really breaks upgrades. | 00:02 |
| simonizor[m] | Seems pretty lame. I can install any other DE on Ubuntu LTS and have it be supported for the whole term of the LTS regardless of whether there's an offical flavor or not | 00:02 |
| tsimonq2 | This isn't any other DE. | 00:02 |
| tsimonq2 | We're declaring that we won't support LXQt for the length of the LTS. | 00:02 |
| tsimonq2 | That's it. | 00:02 |
| tsimonq2 | You can use it, but you do so at your own risk. | 00:02 |
| simonizor[m] | So don't put a package on an LTS release for it | 00:02 |
| simonizor[m] | You doing so and then not supporting it after 9 months is highly confusing and pretty silly | 00:03 |
| tsimonq2 | *We don't have the power to do that.* | 00:03 |
| tsimonq2 | We DO have the power to say what we will support. | 00:03 |
| tsimonq2 | And, it's treating it like a normal release. | 00:03 |
| tsimonq2 | Normal releases get nine months of support. | 00:03 |
| tsimonq2 | This is what Kubuntu did when Plasma 5 was introduced. | 00:04 |
| tsimonq2 | It's the recommended protocol. | 00:04 |
| tsimonq2 | So, don't be calling US stupid. | 00:04 |
| tsimonq2 | You're welcome to upgrade to 18.10. | 00:04 |
| tsimonq2 | (When it comes out.) | 00:04 |
| tsimonq2 | The long and short of this is: the announcement we've put out is the appropriate action to take here. | 00:05 |
| simonizor[m] | Yeah, no. Advising people to do that in the first place is extra silly. | 00:05 |
| tsimonq2 | That's your opinion. | 00:05 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm following protocol. | 00:05 |
| simonizor[m] | I wanted to like LXQt, but I just don't think y'all are going to be able to pull of what I hoped. Lumina, on the other hand, is already there. | 00:05 |
| tsimonq2 | LXQt isn't supported by us in Xenial, by the way. | 00:06 |
| tsimonq2 | And again, that's your opinion. | 00:06 |

| lubot2 | <tsimonq2> I wouldn't bother testing yet. | 20:31 |
| lubot2 | <tsimonq2> I'll update everyone here once there is an ISO which is candidate. | 20:32 |
