[Bug 1926938] Re: Recent mainline packages are built with Hirsuite 21.04, not Focal 20.04 LTS
> I believe we can close this bug. The change to the wiki is welcome, since it now reflects the current situation. However, in my opinion, the real problem uncovered here has not been addressed: Ubuntu should provide mainline kernels built with the latest LTS toolchain alongside the current one that uses bleeding edge toolchains, so that using/testing more recent kernels becomes more accessible to a wider audience (i.e., the vast majority who does not compile their kernels from source). Historically, Ubuntu has had a major barrier to adoption: new users who buy their hardware in between LTS cycles will usually have a very sub- par experience with Ubuntu because of the outdated kernel. Their choice is to either: - use the latest intermediate release, which may still not provide a recent enough kernel and is a bad choice for a first time user anyway - use the latest LTS which may not be usable at all on their systems with the very outdated kernel (this tends to happen a lot with laptops in particular). With all due respect to the user who put up https://launchpad.net/~tuxinvader/+archive/ubuntu/kernel-build-tools and their efforts in doing so, there should be an official PPA/infrastructure in place for this. We all know users installing lots of PPAs without thinking is a huge risk and a practice that is advised against. But then you can't just leave the user with only one remaining, untenable choice, which is for their system to be unusable, in the name of security concerns that they don't quite understand. This is a common criticism of Ubuntu: it effectively _forces_ users into installing a whole bunch of random PPAs willy-nilly to get certain basic features. Until something is done about this, "LTS" releases are actually unusable (or usable with many jarring bugs) for many users. The HWE releases are better than nothing, but not nearly enough. A post above put it very nicely: > If you are telling people that you are going to support it for 5 years, then that means being able to provide security updates to them as well as allowing them to use hardware that was created during the 5 years following April 2020 within reason. To do that, people must be able to update the kernel plain and simple. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1926938 Title: Recent mainline packages are built with Hirsuite 21.04, not Focal 20.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1926938/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1940631] Re: Keep thunderbird 91 in impish-proposed until a point release enables profile upgrades
Thumbs up to go ahead with 91 on impish. Indeed, it does not seem like a great idea to: - release impish with a series of thunderbird that is EOL (as @osomon stated) - go into the 22.04 cycle without having proven tb >= 91 in at least one previous release Furthermore, as of this writing, the disclaimer concerning profile upgrades is no longer present in the release notes for 91.1.2, as opposed to previous 91.x releases. I would bet that upstream is confident that everything is in order, but it is also possible that they simply forgot to add the disclaimer thus far - here is an archive link as proof anyway: https://web.archive.org/web/20210929002603/https://www.thunderbird.net/en- US/thunderbird/91.1.2/releasenotes/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1940631 Title: Keep thunderbird 91 in impish-proposed until a point release enables profile upgrades To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1940631/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1895643] Re: Backport Thunderbird 78 to 20.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS
Thanks for seeing this through, but let me raise some important points. Why is Thunderbird not covered by the same update policy as Firefox? Sure it's not a web browser, but it's one of the most important and widely used GUI email clients. Also, it is a close cousin of Firefox. These updates took way too long to come out for LTS releases, and they are/were already obsolete once they did roll out. For example, the 78.9.x and 78.10.x releases are more than a month old at this point, and both contain fixes for "high" severity vulnerabilities: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2021-12/ https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2021-14/ I think Ubuntu should make a greater effort to keep up with Thunderbird upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895643 Title: Backport Thunderbird 78 to 20.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/enigmail/+bug/1895643/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
