[10:18] [telegram] How we can contact lubuntu support team.Any email [10:22] There is the users mailing list @Saba https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users [10:23] We have all our links posted on our web page https://lubuntu.me/links [10:24] [telegram] But is this official lubuntu link? or only lubuntu team can see my email? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) There is the users mailing list @Saba https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users) [10:26] The mailing list goes to all subscribers of the list. [10:26] All the links are official that I posted. [10:28] [telegram] But how I contact only lubuntu experts? I want to ask one question. [10:32] @Saba you can post your support question here in this chat, https://discourse.lubuntu.me/c/support/6 or the mailing list. We are all volunteers but someone will try to answer your question in any one of those places. [10:33] [telegram] Can I ask it here? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) @Saba you can post your support question here in this chat, https://discourse.lubuntu.me/c/support/6 or the mailing list. We are all volunteers but someone will try to answer your question in any one of those places.) [10:33] Sure [10:35] [telegram] So I want to ask that can we use lubuntu for commercial purposes like if we are graphic designer and create our designs with any graphic software on lubuntu and then upload it on any website that pay us for these designs. (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) Sure) [10:37] You are free to use it for that. [10:38] [telegram] Are you from lubuntu official team? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) You are free to use it for that.) [10:39] I am one of the council members. [10:41] [telegram] No I mean is there lubuntu ask you to give answers or you are a member like us?It means are you lubuntu expert? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) I am one of the council members.) [10:44] I am not sure I understand your question. You can see all the contributors here: https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/contributors/ My launchpad link is at the top of the list in the council members, I am also listed as a current member and developer. We have no paid staff, we are all volunteers. [10:55] [telegram] Ok thank you for answer.I have one more question that is If we search lubuntu on chrome then there is one site showing that is lubuntu.net.is it also official website or lubuntu.me is only official? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) I am not sure I understand your question. You can see all the contributors here: https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/contributors/ My launchpad link is at the top of the list in the council members, I am also listed as a [10:55] Only lubuntu.me is official. [10:56] The other site is not run by the Lubuntu team. [10:59] You can verify the lubuntu.me page by going to the Ubuntu flavours page https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours [10:59] [telegram] But if we download lubuntu from lubuntu.net can it create any problem.Because I am not sure in my laptop lubuntu is installed is it from lubuntu.me or lubuntu.net. (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) Only lubuntu.me is official.) [10:59] I wouldn't use the downloads from .net they may be out of date. [11:01] It is also a good idea to verify your downloads https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu#1-overview [11:03] [telegram] No but now how I recognize that because if I create designs on lubuntu that is not official then it can create problem.what can I do now? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) I wouldn't use the downloads from .net they may be out of date.) [11:05] Not much other than re-install from a verified download. You should backup your data first and then proceed. [11:06] [telegram] I cannot download this.I have no idea about this (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) Not much other than re-install from a verified download. You should backup your data first and then proceed.) [11:11] [telegram] Lubuntu as many Linux Distributions is free to use even for commercial use. You could even sale it without any restriction. That's why GPL is a great licence. (re @Saba: So I want to ask that can we use lubuntu for commercial purposes like if we are graphic designer and create our designs with any graphic software on lubuntu and then upload it on any website that pay us for these designs.) [11:14] [telegram] I want to ask that if we search lubuntu on chrome then there is website showing lubuntu.net.If it is not official lubuntu website then if we download lubuntu from this lubuntu.net website then can it create any problem. (re @Crixero: Lubuntu as many Linux Distributions is free to use even for commercial use. You could even sale it without any restriction. That's why GPL is a great licence.) [11:16] [telegram] Not, because lubuntu.net and the people behind the website could share the software and distribute it without any issues. I understand one of the first contributors founded that website. But lubuntu.net is out of date because those leave the project when LXQT become the official DE (re @Saba: I want to ask that if we search lubuntu on chrome then there is website showing lubuntu.net.If it is not official lubuntu website then if we downl [11:17] [telegram] Correct me if I'm wrong here @teward001 [11:19] [telegram] So can I use lubuntu freely if it is downloaded from lubuntu.net?thanks for all replies (re @Crixero: Not, because lubuntu.net and the people behind the website could share the software and distribute it without any issues. I understand one of the first contributors founded that website. But lubuntu.net is out of date because those leave the project when LXQT become the official DE) [11:20] [telegram] Yes but you should not use those. Because official one is Lubuntu.me and those in dot net are out of date and without any support. (re @Saba: So can I use lubuntu freely if it is downloaded from lubuntu.net?thanks for all replies) [11:21] [telegram] They don't have support because the last one posted there was 19.10 support for this end July/2020 [11:22] [telegram] And the 18.04 LTS is unsupported since last month. [11:23] FYI: as far as I'm aware; lubuntu.net does not offer a download directly; it points you to the official cdimage.ubuntu.com site for the download (thus the owner doesn't pick up the bill, but it also means it's a legit download) .. but there is always a risk it's not an official download unless you check. [11:24] for official ubuntu flavors always ask ubuntu.com (ie. https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours) and don't trust google [11:24] [telegram] The matter is the website hasn't been updated for a while now. The last download link offered there points to 19.10 (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) FYI: as far as I'm aware; lubuntu.net does not offer a download directly; it points you to the official cdimage.ubuntu.com site for the download (thus the owner doesn't pick up the bill, but it also means it's a legit download) .. but there is always a risk it's not an official download [11:28] [telegram] I not want to use lubuntu.net but lubuntu is already installed in my laptop and I am not sure is it download from lubuntu.net or lubuntu.me.Because in my laptop lubuntu is downloaded from another person.So now how I recognize this.What can I do now? (re @Crixero: Yes but you should not use those. Because official one is Lubuntu.me and those in dot net are out of date and without any support.) [11:30] [telegram] Whish version of Lubuntu are you using? (re @Saba: I not want to use lubuntu.net but lubuntu is already installed in my laptop and I am not sure is it download from lubuntu.net or lubuntu.me.Because in my laptop lubuntu is downloaded from another person.So now how I recognize this.What can I do now?) [11:30] [telegram] 18.04 (re @Crixero: Whish version of Lubuntu are you using?) [11:33] Lubuntu 18.04 LTS reaches it's EOL this month anyway (https://lubuntu.me/bionic-5-released/) Some parts of it will still get upgrades (packages from 'main' repository; you can use `ubuntu-support-status` to see what reaches EOL & what is still supported security wise) but I'd not worry about whether a 18.04 release was from official lubuntu.me or another site due to EOL status in now days [11:35] [telegram] I strongly recommend you to upgrade your system to 20.04 with a fresh install. Contact you support team and is probably they could help you to do so. (re @Saba: 18.04) [11:36] [telegram] How to contact support team? (re @Crixero: I strongly recommend you to upgrade your system to 20.04 with a fresh install. Contact you support team and is probably they could help you to do so.) [11:39] [telegram] Dude, the man who install you Lubuntu (re @Saba: How to contact support team?) [11:42] [telegram] No but now it is not possible.But can you let me know is there any problem with 18.04?it also show me updates.I cannot reinstall it.kindly share another method. (re @Crixero: Dude, the man who install you Lubuntu) [11:48] [telegram] Can it create problem if I have lubuntu installed from lubuntu.net? (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) Lubuntu 18.04 LTS reaches it's EOL this month anyway (https://lubuntu.me/bionic-5-released/) Some parts of it will still get upgrades (packages from 'main' repository; you can use `ubuntu-support-status` to see what reaches EOL & what is still supported security wise) but I'd not worry about whether a 18.04 release was from official lubun [12:02] I can only give an opinion; lubuntu.net was not created, nor is run for malicious purposes so I'm not aware of any risks (beyond outdated software & details), plus the use of official sites being used to provide the download (cutting bandwidth costs of lubu.net owner) helped avoid lubu.net being a risky problem.. [14:05] [telegram] The lubuntu that installed on my laptop sometimes showed me the notification that is (i think lubuntu new version available can you install it now and I think the version it showed is 20.But on that time I cross it.now where can I find it.It shows me this notification after some days.

[14:17] [telegram] Suppose if we have lubuntu version 18.04 that is installed from official website then it also become expire at the end of this month.Can we not use this 18.04 version. (re @Crixero: The Lubuntu team ask every 18.04 user to do a reinstall due to the big changes comited in the last few updates.) [14:20] [telegram] You could use it, but is unsupported. With tons of packages being insecure in the near future. (re @Saba: Suppose if we have lubuntu version 18.04 that is installed from official website then it also become expire at the end of this month.Can we not use this 18.04 version.) [14:23] [telegram] But after this can we use this freely?Is there lubuntu open source license also terminate for 18.04 after this version expire date (re @Crixero: You could use it, but is unsupported. With tons of packages being insecure in the near future.) [14:34] [telegram] I think you should see how GPL work and stop asking those questions. (re @Saba: But after this can we use this freely?Is there lubuntu open source license also terminate for 18.04 after this version expire date) [15:44] hello === lubuntu is now known as Guest62363 === opfour is now known as opfour1 [23:08] How can I fix this error (E: Unable to locate package) while installing sth [23:10] !info sth [23:10] Package sth does not exist in groovy [23:10] where are you getting this package from? [23:10] because it doesn't seem to be the ubuntu archives [23:10] I think they left [23:10] oh well [23:11] doesn't exist though, you are correct. [23:11] there's a synaesthesia package in xenial, though, so there's that.
