Re: [Trisquel-users] Ubuntu 16.04 released 2 months ago. Trisquel 8 status?

Well there were reports of the installer going mad, which applies to all  
Ubuntu spins. If you look in the mailing list you will see that Canonical  
made new ISO images to solve some of the problems, but people continued to  
have them.
I also think the use of the term 'distribution' is being used inappropriately  
here. Ubuntu MATE is just a LiveCD with MATE instead of the default Unity. It  
uses the Ubuntu repositories so is just, well, Ubuntu. The problems with  
things like the installer could be in other spins of Ubuntu, like the MATE  
version.
