Thanks kecsap for taking this up. Just for security and consistency, I like to know what changes in Firefox for anything I install (and I have lots of extensions). But extensions and plugins can conflict or do strange things. There is no real hurry, but something should be in the next release.

[Bug 123713] Re: package description needs rewrite
Something like stated in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubufox/+bug/123713/comments/15 We are pretty much unble to get less general since ubufox has default settings that we ship and there are way too many.. It already states that: Description: Ubuntu Firefox specific configuration defaults and apt support Extension package for Firefox provides ubuntu specific configuration defaults as well as apt support for firefox plugins/extensions. That tells users that it is used to add extensions as well as has configurable settings. We are unable to list all settings but it allows you to change settings in the advanced setting page about:config But as to explain exactly what it does and what can be changed is not really able to happen since there are too many settings that can be changed. Now if you mean that the Description is not user friendly than i can understand What did you mean by the following from comment 15 link above: 2. apt support for firefox plugins / extensions is meaningless to someone who doesn't already know what ubufox does. It is also a bit misleading because apturl requires gnome-app-install and synaptic. Users of adept, dpkg-www, aptitude, or other apt frontends will not receive apt support. As for the above. It is not possible at this point to install firefox without GTK apps/libs since there is not yet a qt version. This is being worked on upstream but i think they came to a point they had to stop. Once QT support is added than we can redo the depends on it to use QT apps/libs and ubufox is installed with firefox | abrowser | firefox-3.0 | firefox-2 I have also changed the browsers a bit remove 2.0 and added a few other versions. as well as updated it to work with 3.5 3.6 and such. This is only in my PPA at this time but i will most likely merge what i have to the main branch. So to have a complete description of what you would like it to be We are flying blind on it, If you can give me a reasonible way of how deep you want to go with the description than maybe we can come to a compromise but just saying what does this mean and what does that mean is a bit too open, Examples above about not being able to list everything it does is not really reasonible since it allows you to change Ubuntu config options instead of us having to ship with all/none enabled. The word unhelpful doesn't really tell us anything except a few people didnt understand it. It tells you you can remove it if you want the firefox we ship without the configure changes that we made using ubufox to please most people -- package description needs rewrite https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 123713] Re: package description needs rewrite
Point me to something, anything, that documents what ubufox does and I'll be happy to write a description. it allows you to change settings in the advanced setting page about:config Firefox already allows changing settings in about:config, without ubufox. The question is what changes are made by ubufox. We are pretty much unable to get less general since ubufox has default settings that we ship and there are way too many Saying that the package does too much to document is pretty lame, IMHO. Rather, it's even more important to document them. It is not possible at this point to install firefox without GTK apps/libs since there is not yet a qt version. No one is suggesting to install firefox without GTK, and trying to write it in QT is silly. In fact, the problem isn't firefox at all. The description says that it's adding apt support, but that description is misleading. The problem is the additional GNOME dependencies that apturl drags in. What's really going on is that ubufox depends on a GNOME graphical interface to the apt protocol. There are three alternative tacks to take. (1) If ubufox and apturl don't do anything that is specific to GNOME, drop the dependency on the GNOME packages in apturl; (2) Change apturl to a Recommends dependency rather than a Depends (which probably makes sense in any event); and (3) (germane to this bug report) Provide a more accurate description of what the apturl dependency does. E.g., ubufox also depends on apturl, which is a GNOME graphical interface to the apt protocol allowing installation of software using a URL of the software repository. Again, if ubufox were documented somewhere, the community could help. -- Loye Young Isaac Young Computer Company Laredo, Texas loye.yo...@iycc.net 956.857.1172 -- package description needs rewrite https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 123713] Re: package description needs rewrite
The description still doesn't describe what ubufox does. You've said it changes firefox configuration, but that's no help. I've been asked about this package, but I don't have a good explanation for what the package does or whether the package is needed or not, because it is not documented at all (which is another bug that needs reporting). 1. After reading the description, the user is left with no idea about what specific configuration defaults are being changed. As one user remarked, If they know what the 'specifics' are, why don't they just tell us? 2. apt support for firefox plugins / extensions is meaningless to someone who doesn't already know what ubufox does. It is also a bit misleading because apturl requires gnome-app-install and synaptic. Users of adept, dpkg-www, aptitude, or other apt frontends will not receive apt support. 3. It is ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT to note in the description that ubufox depends on GNOME (via the dependency on apturl). The phrase ubuntu specific is not sufficiently descriptive because ubuntu is an ambiguous term: sometimes it means the GNOME desktop, and sometimes it means the superset distribution of all the *buntu flavors.
