  • Well, he isn't saying that.

    Packaging is something nobody that wants to use Ubuntu needs to know. It's mainly something developers / MOTU members will do.

    (Packaging is the act of taking the source code of an application and organizing according to packaging standards then to compile that so that a regular user can easily install that particular application. It's the messy work that makes it easier for the end user.)

  • On the dh_make you can also do dh_make -s -c gpl3 so that you don't have to change it from version 2 to 3.

  • Best thing since sliced bread, thanks man :)

  • MOTU = Mark Of The Unicorn (music program)

  • Its mostly complicated reasons out there to use Unbuntu as OS.

    B'cause it seems to be New OS. Commanding system is pretty uncatchy.

    Anyway I make a tryout.

  • I agree, it is good to have an alternative to what Microsoft and Apple force on you otherwise.

  • Well, that's the goodness, nobody are forcing you to use a GNU / Linux distribution. If you're a vivid gamer, perhaps Windows, vivid designer, OS X. If you're something inbetween and a developer + one of the 1 billion that only use the computer to listen to music, talk to friends, etc, a linux distribution is a good idea.

  • Ah, I see how that can be good and make it less of a pain to use, but personally I still prefer Windows or OS X.

  • I guess that guy in the video above these comments, why?

  • Who is saying that anyone has to know this to use Ubuntu?
