Well, anything installed from main will be supported, but the GNOME LiveCD will include a bunch of stuff from universe, which are not supported. The meta-packages don't really impact the supportability of the install, and even with them installed, it'll still have a bunch of universe stuff on it. So, maybe a little bit of prose to explain that some of the software is not supported by Ubuntu is all we need. - Jeff -- OSCON 2005: August 1st-5th http://conferences.oreillynet.com/os2005/ No clue is good clue. -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
