Title:
Jockey proceeds to uninstall 'ubuntu-desktop' and X server in Natty
Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Currently the proprietary Nvidia driver in Ubuntu Natty does not work
with the X server. Therefore, both packages conflict with each other.
Installing 'nvidia-current', or any other Nvidia driver, will remove
the X server and with that also 'ubuntu-desktop'. Install the X
server, and therefore also 'ubuntu-desktop', will uninstall any
proprietary Nvidia driver still present on the desktop.
At the moment the proprietary Nvidia drivers are still visible in
Jockey. You can install them, and Jockey will proceed to install the
'nvidia-current' or 'nvidia-173' package, depending on your choice.
Jockey will even do this when it requires the removal of the X server
and 'ubuntu-desktop'.
I think that Jockey should refuse to install any driver when it leads
to the removal of 'ubuntu-desktop' or such a key element of the
desktop as the X server. It should warn the user that it is impossible
to proceed and abort. Currently there is a risk that users break their
own system and end up without a graphical shell.
