[08:55] <max12345> hi, can someone help me identify the package/contribution location for the "preferred application" gui?
[09:26] <gnrp> max12345: I don't know what you mean, but maybe you are referring to /etc/alternatives ?
[09:33] <max12345> gnrp: no, I mean this https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/exo/4.14/preferred-applications
[09:33] <max12345> I can't find where I would submit an issue/error or a patch to add an option to select prefered text editor
[09:37] <gnrp> max12345: Ah, that's what you mean.
[09:37] <gnrp> check out /etc/alternatives/editor
[09:37] <gnrp> and the command update-alternatives
[09:38] <gnrp> I wouldn't know a way to do it via the gui
[09:38] <gnrp> e.g., run `update-alternatives --config editor`
[09:45] <Maik> max12345: that what you want isn't xubuntu related but Xfce related, for issue/bug reports etc. check here: https://gitlab.xfce.org/explore/groups?sort=name_desc
[09:46] <max12345> Maik: alright!
[09:47] <Maik> for more xfce related question you can also join #xfce and #xfce-dev
[10:55] <max12345> Maik: alright thanks, I found... something, and wrote a comment into the appropriate, already filed, bug.
[10:56] <max12345> ...only took two hours.
[10:56] <max12345> yay
[10:57] <Maik> yw :)
[14:32] <dancesWithBikes> Hi guys, I am wondering about the difference between apt-get and the frontend ubuntu software. Obviously, those two are not the same. I find weechat using apt-cache search but not using the software frontend. Does anyone has a clue for the reason of the different behaviour?
[14:33] <gnrp> dancesWithBikes: No actualy answer, but in #ubuntu you might find more help. This is nto a xubuntu-related question
[14:34] <gnrp> just a guess, never been using the software frontend from ubuntu: Is that maybe only snap packages?
[15:33] <Maik> dancesWithBikes: ubuntu software is basically a snap store afaik
[15:33] <Maik> at least, that's what it has become
[17:24] <dancesWithBikes> Maik: Thank you very much for sharing your experience.
