Public bug reported: I was shocked to find out that a package in Ubuntu installs a sources.list snippet to point to a third-party repo. So far, I've always had to specifically enable any such third-party repo (Skype, etc.), so I was well aware of what was going on. That there is a package in universe allowed to sneak stuff in behind my back like that without at the very least a BIG FAT WARNING is untenable.
I have read https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical- board/2014-April/001858.html and following BTW. I understood that to be about discussing the requirements to set up a separate, Ubuntu- sanctioned distribution channel supposedly for IP-related reasons. I'm fine with that. I'm absolutely not fine with a third-party repo being enabled automatically behind my back. ** Affects: ubuntukylin-default-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1914266 Title: ubuntukylin-default-settings injects third-party repo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntukylin-default-settings/+bug/1914266/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
