| IrcsomeBot | <PJtunes> Is downloading driverspack any useful for kubuntu?? | 10:02 |
| tomreyn | PJtunes: most likely not (but then it's not clear what "driverspack" is) | 11:51 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:36 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Tarek> Hello. Quick question: Will there be somewhat of a "Kubuntu Pro" as well, given that Ubuntu Pro is now going into beta? | 14:59 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | @Tarek That's simply not possible. Kubuntu is developed by the community, not by Canonical, and as such the extended support does not apply. | 15:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <CrustyCrab55> Since Canonical is not in charge, the community maintaining Kubuntu could actually push the boundary further by getting rid of snap packages preinstalled and follow the latest release cycle of Plasma and it’s frameworks instead of older ones. I mean community won’t be playing the corporate roles here anyways and they can implement the best choice than what Canonical could do in years maybe (re @IrcsomeBot: <Eickmeyer[m]> @Tarek That' | 16:28 |
| IrcsomeBot | <CrustyCrab55> I know backports is a option for latest and greatest of KDE but why not being one and pushing all the updates (re @CrustyCrab55: Since Canonical is not in charge, the community maintaining Kubuntu could actually push the boundary further by getting rid of snap packages preinstalled and follow the latest release cycle of Plasma and it’s frameworks instead of older ones. I mean community won’t be playing the corporate roles here anyway | 16:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Eickmeyer> That's not how it works, and it's way more complicated than that. Canonical is still in charge of the repositories, and the Ubuntu Technical Board is still in charge of what constitutes an official flavor. Kubuntu still has to fall under certain rules to be an official flavor. Canonical holds the trademark for Kubuntu, even if it's community developed. But there's an official support support period of 3 years as set by the Kubuntu community | 16:31 |
| Eickmeyer | !latest | 16:33 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 16:33 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Eickmeyer> (3 years for LTS, 9 months for regular) | 16:34 |
| IrcsomeBot | <CrustyCrab55> Gotcha | 16:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <PJtunes> Ok thanks (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> PJtunes: most likely not (but then it's not clear what "driverspack" is)) | 20:12 |
