OK. So, as expected, lots more packages end up marked as auto-installed following this change (see attachment). I think that was pretty much inevitable. I've looked through the changes and they all seem broadly reasonable, though - the top-level metapackages and such are still marked as manually installed. In some ways I suppose you might argue that this is really better, although it does mean that people who remove metapackages will see lots of stuff offered for autoremove - but they might even want that sometimes, and we did always say that people who removed our metapackages were on their own.
I think this is about the best we can reasonably do in the circumstances. ** Patch added: "extended_states.diff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1098512/+attachment/3520553/+files/extended_states.diff ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098512 Title: Build 12.04.2 images with X enablement (lts-quantal) stack To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1098512/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
