The point of ubuntu-desktop (and the like) is precisely to assert a default set of packages which we tested and are officially supported. Thus, ubuntu-minimal is *meant* to be removed if you replace one of its dependencies with an alternative.
If you think that syslog-ng would serve as a better default, this should become a proper specification. Incidentally, there already is one: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/syslog-improvements, so if you are interested it, please feel invited to subscribe to it and push forward it. Thank you! ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Rejected -- syslog-ng causes ubuntu-minimal to be removed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42555 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
