Whatever the reasons are for the delay, the fact is that ekiga does not work for a lot of users, right now, on the current ubuntu release, 6.10. And probably *never* has.
Maybe when 7.04 is released later this week, the minority of machines affected by the bug will be able to upgrade out of the trouble. Maybe. Point is, a backport of the fix, when it was identified all those months ago, would have saved a lot of folks a lot of trouble. As it is, what seems to have been unnecessary delay in backporting a fix to a known bug has cost both ekiga and ubuntu some goodwill points. I understand this is not particularly down down to you folks at ekiga, so please feel free to forward this email to where it may do some good! Thanks for all the efforts. It sure looks like what I need. I hope to try it out soon :) On Wed, 2007-04-11 at 12:08 +0000, Snark wrote: > 2.0.x releases are bugfix-only releases : cherry-picking makes no sense. > -- ekiga segfaults on start up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/63348 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
