[13:07] <BluesKaj> Hi all
 Good day
 Please can anyone tell me how to select multiple files like 20 and copy to another place in kubuntu
 You can select multiple files in the file manager by pressing control or shift and just clicking them. Then just copy and paste, should be the same as how files are moved in windows or osx
 Thanks
 Caen
[21:13] <user|59> Hi! I was wondering why Kubuntu LTS has three years of support while Ubuntu LTS has five. Is someone able to enlighten me? They use the same repos, no?
[21:14] <bprompt> user|59: more or less, the same packages, not sure if the same repos though
[21:17] <RikMills> user|59: The Kubuntu team have to commit to supporting Kubuntu as a flavour, as KDE packages are not supported by mainline Ubuntu in the fashion that say the core Gnome ones are
[21:18] <RikMills> as the Kubuntu team are volunteers who may come and go, 3 years is a compromise
[21:19] <bprompt> user|59: last I bother, it was a decision by the Kubuntu team
[21:19] <RikMills> 3 years is the same for other community flavours
[21:20] <bprompt> user|59: that said, hmmm if you install Ubuntu, and then install KDE and QT, you get LTS for 5 years whilst running "kubuntu" anyway =)
[21:21] <bprompt> I mean, is how I used to do it in SuSE and Mandrake and Fedora
[21:25] <user|59> RikMills: I see, so while Ubuntu LTS has five years of support, this doesn't really extend to the KDE packages? Btw, I'm very grateful for the volunteer work and three years of support – just wondering on the cause of the difference, since I have no idea what "LTS" entails/includes.
[21:28] <user|59> bprompt: Would Ubuntu with KDE and Qt essentially equate to Kubuntu, and are the KDE packages actually supported for five years? Because as far as I understand RikMills they aren't supported to the extend of "default" Ubuntu packages under the LTS.
[21:30] <bprompt> user|59: well, my understanding from the reading at https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2023/02/24/ubuntu-22-04-2-lts-released/ , is that Ubuntu desktop gets LTS for 5 years
[21:31] <bprompt> user|59: I don't see why Ubuntu with KDE not be seen as Ubuntu, mind you that Kubuntu simply automates a few things for you, is all, same with Lubuntu and others, but is basically Ubuntu
[21:32] <bprompt> user|59: and yes, there's no difference, if  you install KDE and QT afterwards, not even sure you have to install QT, I think it comes with KDE desktop anyway, as I said, I used to do that for other distributions, I think did that also in Debian too, same KDE
[21:33] <bprompt> user|59: the issue seems to just be the team doing the "automations" for the installer
[21:36] <bprompt> user|59: I've run KDE for a long time, because some if its apps are better than elsewhere, for example I use Konqueror for my file manager, because in Konqueror I can do multiple-panels, so I can have 5 or 6 directories all in view in the same screen and move files back and forth, also allows for customization for its right-click options, so I add some stuff I use
[21:37] <bprompt> and I don't think Konqueror has a limit on the panels or "views", so you can put quite a few directories all in view simultaneously
[21:40] <bprompt> user|59: that said, I don't run Kwin as my window manager, I run LXQT
[21:50] <tsimpson> user|59: It's mostly down to how KDE itself is maintained. The LTS version of KDE is supported for 2 years, so anything longer than that means the Kubuntu developers taking over secuirty maintainance for the other 3 years
[22:10] <user|59> tsimpson: I see. Three years seems like a great decision in that case. Bridges the gap until next Kubuntu LTS without taking on too much for an extended period.
[22:10] <user|59> Thank you for your answers bprompt, RikMills and tsimpson!
