What I've already done is to keep gpaint in edubuntu-desktop and put kolourpaint4 in edubuntu-desktop-kde. One question is how this effects the app bundles. I think ideally what we should do is put the common, educational, applications in the app bundles and leave the peripheral, not-strictly-educational apps for the edubuntu-desktop packages. Any thoughts on that? In this case I think we need a good, simple paint program and the app bundles where we'd put kolourpaint would already have KDE libraries so we're not adding additional dependencies. While gpaint isn't totally dead upstream we have a number of serious bugs in Launchpad, whereas kolourpaint seems largely bugfree in Launchpad and has an active upstream as far as I know. So, unless there is an objection I'll be putting kolourpaint4 instead of gpaint in the app bundles. -Jordan -- edubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-devel
