[Touch-packages] [Bug 1882157] [NEW] Can't report bug on package you have replaced
Public bug reported: Ubuntu-bug will not let you report a bug if you have upgraded a package using external sources. Package zoom was so old the server rejected it.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1828220] Re: apt-get --install-suggests applied recursively
The claim that it does what it says it does is false. What it, in fact does, is consider suggested packages of OTHER packages as a dependency for installing. This recursive behavior is not advertised and not acceptable. For that behavior, one should have to use an option such as --install-suggests-recursive and not --install- suggests. There is an enormous difference between installing the packages suggested by the package geda and installing the packages suggested many levels deep. Even without a defective suggests list, this would not be expected or desired behavior. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828220 Title: apt-get --install-suggests applied recursively Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: In a blatent violation of the principal of least surprise, --install- suggests installs packages that are in the suggested packages for packages that are not listed on the command line.

Problem reproduced on separate (virtual) machine, unmodified ubuntu live image. - Host system AMD Phenom II X6 1090T with 16GB RAM Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS - virtualbox 14.3.36-dfsg-... - SATA 0: 8GB VMDK drive (new) - SATA 1: CD/ROM: ubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso - Base memory: 4GB (important, if you use 1GB, ubuntu will boot to desktop but nothing works) must have enough ram on host machine to permit this - Specific Virtual machine -> System -> Motherboard: Enable EFI: On otherwise it will not boot - Boot menu: TRY ubuntu without installing - Show Applications (dash)-> Terminal - Show Applications -> Settings-> Universal Access -> Always Show Universal Access Menu: On - don't dismiss settings, we will use it about 8 steps below. - Universal Access menu (round man in circle on top panel) -> Zoom: on - Move pointer to upper left corner of desktop: note left panel (launcher) icons cut in hafl, note top panel cut in half - move to top right - click on whats left of universal access menu icon to pull down menu, note it is drawn incorrectly - move mouse down and to the left and notice how these panels/pull down menus scroll independently and incorrectly. - try to turn off the zoom in the univeral access pull down menu. Try to read the word zoom, now you cant see the control, move to see the control now you can't see the word. But in this case, you can actually get there. - turn zoom back on - move mouse pointer to upper right hand corner. Make sure either the universal access or the system menu is pulled down - move mouse down and left to the words "sound keys" in the settings menu (control panel, not the pull down menu) for universal access. Leave the mouse pointer there for a few seconds. Display will pan to upper right hand corner without permission. - If you repeat this without either of the two pull down menus activated, it will jump to the highlighted "Universal Access" on the left side of the settings window. This jumping action severely interfered with issuing screenshot commands in terminal and it will interfere with many other operations as well. Behavior of program suggests that the screen is being composited of the following elements: - desktop background - application window 1 - application window 2 - application window 3 ... - top panel - left panel (launcher) - pull down menu The first four items appear to be correctly composited together before applying the zoom and pan operation but the last three appear to not be composited onto the desktop+applications before zoom and pan is applied. The size of their windows has not been enlarged, only the contents. Add to paragraph about obfuscating the identity of the programs the user is interacting with: Universal Pull down menu also doesn't have "Help" or report bug menu items. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769299 Title: universal access zoom unusable Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Filed by mark on behalf of low vision user Ken. Ken is able to read 56 point type without magnification at normal reading distance and can barely read the universal access "large text" from a distance of about 2.5 inches from a 26inch monitor at 1360x768. So he really needs magnification and a lot more than the 2x default I used here for testing. We do not live in the same town so providing additional details would be slow. Turned on zoom from the universal access button on top panel. Default settings were used including Zoom = 2.0, screen part = full Several areas are corrupted. These zoom and scroll separately from the rest of the screen and in a way that severely impairs use as portions may not ever be visible. Portions of these subwindows cannot be used because you have to move the mouse off them to be able see them so you can either see or click but not both. These areas are: - The top panel - The left panel (launcher) (intermittently) - pull down menus, particularly the universal access pull down from the top panel Also, the zoom randomly every couple seconds. jumps to a different position without the user's consent. This appeared to be because text was printed by a program running in the terminal window (long apt-get install) but continued to happen even when that window was minimized and even when that program stopped printing. These problems persisted with all the other zoom modes. One mode, however, created new bugs. With "magnifier extends outside of screen", you lose the ability to see the top and left panels at all; you can pan over where they would be but they are not drawn. Can't open the pulldown menu since
