Ubuntu is not restricting end user's freedom, it's letting them do what they want. Actions simply have consequences. One cannot anticipate what all third-party apps are going to do to your system, especially if they're run as super-user, in order to compensate for them in the upgrade process. IMHO, it should be EasyUbuntu and Automatix's domain of responsibility to ensure their third-party app doesn't break anything. Hope this finds you having a good day! Sim?n

However, that said, it's my understanding that the devs have been thoughtful about what they want ubuntu to be. They didn't want to restrict the end user's freedom about what they could or could not load. So I think they would test the upgrade path with third-party add-ons this time around. --Rob _______________________________________________ Fwlug mailing list [email protected] http://fortwaynelug.org/mailman/listinfo/fwlug_fortwaynelug.org
